Side Dish - Garlic Mashed Cauliflower
So much rushing today! After work, and after the conversation that was completely random about scrambled eggs and exes. Sometimes I wonder where this stuff comes from, but it all just happens naturally.
Needless to say it was grocery night, and while I didn't need a lot, I still needed stuff for the rest of the week. Since I finally figured out what I was going to make and all. The main dish is actually cooking tonight, but will share it tomorrow since it takes a while too simmer and stuff. I also got the stuff for the Dessert! While it won't have any garlic in it, I think it fits with the robust flavors that are found in all of the other dishes this week. It was either that or I make Garlic brittle, and I wanted to make sure it all disappeared at work Friday, which I don't think that would have...
So here is the recipe since I am running a teeny tiny bit behind schedule for getting stuff done, cleaned up and onto the evening activities.
Garlic Mashed Cauliflower
1 head cauliflower
5 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1/2 tsp chicken bouillon
1 tsp pepper
Steam or boil the cauliflower (chopped into florets) until tender. Drain off the excess liquid and then puree, however you want, I have a hand blender, so I used that. Add all of the rest of the ingredients at this point. Keep going until completely a mashed mixture. I added a splash of garlic/ginger oil to it for a bit of an extra kick. Nice and versatile this is.
