Description

A creamy, golden cauliflower mash infused with turmeric, roasted garlic, and rich cheeses for a comforting paleo-inspired twist on mashed potatoes.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 head cauliflower (about 2 pounds)
  • 6 tablespoons salted butter
  • 3/4 to 1 cup whole milk
  • 3 1/2 teaspoons Jada Turmeric Chicken Salt
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan
  • Fine ground black pepper, to taste
  • 4 to 5 roasted garlic cloves
  • A couple shakes of Jada Lime Chicken Salt
  • 4 or 5 ramekins (3 inches in diameter by 2 inches deep), buttered

Instructions

  1. Steam cauliflower florets until tender, about 8–10 minutes, then drain thoroughly to remove excess moisture.
  2. In a small saucepan, heat butter and milk together until warm but not boiling.
  3. Transfer steamed cauliflower to a food processor. Add roasted garlic, Jada Turmeric Chicken Salt, Jada Lime Chicken Salt, black pepper, and both cheeses.
  4. Blend while slowly adding the warm milk mixture until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning and texture to taste.
  5. Spoon the mash into buttered ramekins. Top with a sprinkle of cheese and pepper.
  6. Optional: Broil for 2–3 minutes for a lightly golden crust.
  7. Serve hot and enjoy the creamy, flavorful cauliflower mash.

Notes

  • Drain cauliflower well to avoid watery mash.
  • Blend while ingredients are warm for smooth consistency.
  • Use ghee and skip cheese for a fully paleo version.
  • Broil before serving for an extra golden top.
