Equipment

  • 1 stockpot
  • 1 masher

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large russet potato, or small handful of waxy potatoes
  • 1/2 head cauliflower
  • 1/4 cup almond milk or other non-dairy, or low fat milks
  • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 5-8 garlic cloves, roasted
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Cut 1/2 a head of cauliflower into florets. Peel the potato and cut into roughly 1" cubes. Boil the cauliflower florets until very tender, 8-10 minutes. Take the florets out of the water and set aside.
  • In the same pot of boiling water, cook the potatoes until they are very tender and basically falling apart, 12-15 minutes. Turn off the heat and drain the water. Return cauliflower and potatoes to the pot.
  • While the cauliflower and potatoes are tenderizing, pan roast 5-8 whole garlic cloves in olive until golden brown and soft.
  • Add roasted garlic to the pot along with 1/4 cup almond milk (or your favorite dairy or dairy alternative) and 3 Tbsp unsalted butter. Mash using a potato masher, electric beater, or whatever you have that can mash potatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
