Cooking Instructions

1. Place cauliflower florets and garlic in a steamer basket over boiling water, cover and steam until very tender, 12 to 15 minutes. (Alternatively, place florets and garlic in a microwave-safe bowl with 1/4 cup water, cover and microwave on High for 3 to 5 minutes.)

2. Place the cooked cauliflower and garlic in a food processor. Add buttermilk, 2 teaspoons oil, butter, salt and pepper; pulse several times, then process until smooth and creamy. Transfer to a serving bowl. Drizzle with the remaining 2 teaspoons oil and garnish with chives, if desired. Serve hot.

Roasted Cauliflower is healthier!!

I have a much healthier option - roasted Cauliflower. Cut up into florets, toss with Mrs. Dash garlic and herb seasoning and a little olive oil and roast at 400 C for 15 minutes - delicious.
