Don't let the ease of this recipe trick you...it's quite tasty!! It goes well as a side dish when mashed potatoes would be the norm.
Ingredients:
1 head of cauliflower, coarsely chopped
2 Tablespoons "Fox Point" from Penzeys Spices*
1 Tablespoon of butter or olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Sprinkle a shake of salt in it. Add chopped cauliflower and cook for 20 minutes, or until soft. Drain. Add Fox Point and butter or oil and smash it up with a fork, potato smasher thing, or use a hand mixer (which I hardly find necessary when the cauliflower is nice and soft). Salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
*Fox Point is a blend of salt, shallots, chives, garlic, onion and green peppercorns. If you don't have any on hand, you can use powdered versions of these spices, or simply cut up some chives and mince some garlic and add it in.
i make this too, and it is DELISH! my kids are a little reluctant to eat it though. maybe if i just smashed it instead of using my cuisinart...
