Gordon Ramsay Cauliflower Puree Recipe
Gordon Ramsay’s Cauliflower Puree Recipe is a creamy and cozy side dish that remarkably mimics mashed potatoes. It’s a nutritious and tasty option that takes about 20 minutes to prepare.
Ingredients
- 1 head cauliflower (about 2 lbs), cut into ½-inch pieces (don’t worry about keeping florets intact)
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon salt plus more to taste
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter cut into chunks
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Put the chicken broth and salt in a large pot and heat to a boil. Toss the cauliflower in and bring it back to boil.
- Steam the cauliflower, covered, over low heat for 20 minutes, or until very soft. Put the cauliflower into the processor using a slotted spoon.
- Combine the butter and 3 tablespoons of the chicken broth left in the pot. Mix until smooth.
- Add some salt and freshly ground pepper to taste. Blend in the thyme until it is evenly blended.
Notes
- Steam for Softness: Steam the cauliflower until very soft to ensure a creamy texture.
- Reserve Broth: Save some chicken broth for blending to maintain the desired consistency.
- Season Well: Don’t skimp on seasoning with salt, pepper, and thyme for flavor.
- Use a Processor: A food processor ensures a smooth and consistent puree.
