Ingredients
Scale
1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets
4 large cloves of garlic, unpeeled
2 tablespoons of olive oil
½ cup of milk (or almond milk for a dairy-free option)
3 tablespoons of butter (or vegan butter)
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: fresh chives or parsley for garnishing
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). While it's heating, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Spread the cauliflower florets and unpeeled garlic cloves on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
Roast in the oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is fork-tender and has developed some lovely golden-brown spots.
Once the cauliflower is ready, remove it from the oven. Let it cool slightly before you handle the garlic.
Squeeze the roasted garlic cloves out of their skins directly into the bowl with the cauliflower.
Transfer the roasted cauliflower and garlic to a food processor (or use a potato masher). Add milk and butter, and blend until smooth and creamy.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. Give it a final blend to combine all the flavors.
Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with fresh chives or parsley if desired.
Notes
Creamy roasted garlic mashed cauliflower is a healthy comfort food that’s a delicious alternative to traditional mashed potatoes, perfect for autumn and winter meals.
