Ingredients

4 portion(s)

  • 40 grams Butter
  • 75 grams Philadephia cream cheese, softened, (see tips for alternatives)
  • salt and pepper to taste

      Recipe is created for
      TM 5
      If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Recipe's preparation

  1. Place chopped cauliflower into TM bowl and turbo pulse 3-4 times.

     

    Scrape down sides of bowl.

     

    Add butter and cook for 12 minutes, 100 degrees, speed 1.

     

    Add cream cheese, salt and pepper and blend for 30 seconds, speed 7.

Tip

** Cauliflower mash is a great low carb alternative and this recipe tastes just like regular mashed potatoes!

**The cauli mash freezes well.

**DOUBLING THE RECIPE: increase cooking time to 15 minutes and double all ingredients (particularly recommended if using to top a pie)

**Cream cheese can be substituted with cooking cream or coconut cream (for a dairy free version). Sour cream and milk also both work well.


**Different flavours can be added – try adding garlic, chives or parmesan cheese before blending for an added burst of flavour.



**If you try this recipe I would love it if you could please leave a comment and rating.

    I have made this a number of times and its great, so easy to make and you dont need cream cheese you could use cottage cheese, sour cream (non/fat) or marscapone if desired. I like to add some confit of garlic to it....not much but 1 or 2 cloves in the blending process.

    Submitted by Billandpixi on 24. January 2021 - 18:39.

    I found that it took at least three times longer to cook the cauliflower, and it burnt the bottom of the thermomix jug. Tasted fine once I was able to get it cooked - perhaps I should have steamed the cauliflower and then cooked it like you suggested. Don't know what I did wrong, seeing as others seem to manage ok!

    Delicious!
    Have made this many times now. Its my go to mash for keto/low carb. Hubby didn't know he wasn't eating mashed potatoes for the first half dozen times I cooked it. Our favourite variation is to use vintage cheddar instead of the cream cheese. Tonight I changed it up again and added a half teaspoon of fresh thyme in with the cauliflower while it cooked. Probably the best version yet.

    I used ricotta cheese in this recipe instead of cream cheese, purely because I only had ricotta in my fridge. It was DELICIOUS. This is one of the best ways to eat cauliflower. Even my husband enjoyed it and he is not a cauliflower person, so that says it all.
