Tip

This mash is so smooth and silky you could even use it as a grain free 'white sauce' or bechamel sauce.

If you are VEGAN, use olive oil or a vegan spread in place of the butter and add a teaspoon of nutritional yeast flakes for a a lovely cheesy flavour.

  • I made this tonight. Absolutely delicious...

    Submitted by Mandy J on 18. September 2021 - 19:03.

    I made this tonight. Absolutely delicious accompanied by steamed silver beet including the stem sliced, Brussel sprouts, carrot sticks and roast potato and pumpkin.
    I think I may try it as a substitute for Bechamel sauce in a lasagne.

    Very smooth mash. I might try a little less water next time. There was none left when I strained it, but the end result was very sloppy. Used homemade tallow and it was yum

    Submitted by momoyeeyee on 9. October 2017 - 03:35.

    Excellent cauli mash! Made this a second time and it's just as good. Managed to do 1.5 portions of recipe, it would not have been possible to do double portion, wouldn't have fit into the mixing bowl. In doing the 1.5 portions, I had to break the cauliflower into pretty small florets (such that 750g of it just about all fit into the mixing bowl), and initially cooked it on speed 2 instead of speed 1. I also paused the cooking halfway through (ie 10 minutes in) to stir the cooking cauliflower but it wasn't really necessary. Also note to go light with the pepper -- i added slightly too much! Could taste and see the black pepper in the final product

  • Really excellent -- silky smooth, very delicious....

    Submitted by momoyeeyee on 27. July 2017 - 21:22.

    Really excellent -- silky smooth, very delicious. I used 450g of cauliflower only, with 50g of salted butter (plus a bit extra salt and pepper). The mash was quite soft, very very nice. However I would say it made 2 serves (I had mine with prawns) not 4.

    Would be interested to explore possibly adapting it to be an alternative carbonara sauce by adding garlic, thinning it out by adding more oil, and possibly adding nutritional yeast. If I also replace the original 50g of butter with olive oil then all the changes above could turn it into a vegan carbonara sauce??

  • Fantastic. Didn't have enough

    Submitted by Weebindi on 20. April 2016 - 18:56.

    Fantastic.

    Didn't have enough parsnip so I added some turnip/swede that was in a bargain vegie box bought from the greengrocer. The swede needed extra cooking time as I didn't cut it small enough. Stopped the pureeing process every 15 seconds to scrape the bowl.

    Taste was great and the texture super smooth.

  • Fab alternative to mashed

    Submitted by mackazza on 16. July 2015 - 07:24.

    Fab alternative to mashed potato! I'm not a big parsnip fan but this mash wins my vote. Was having it with lamb tonight and realised at the last minute I'd forgotten to cook any greens, so added some spinach and a few mint leaves before pureeing. Yum!!

  • Used this for sweet potato.

    Submitted by klbarre on 22. May 2014 - 18:00.

    Used this for sweet potato. Good lord, so silky and so easy to do.  Perfect mash and a perfect bed for my meatballs. I cooked some broccolini in the varoma at the same time, which made the mash a tad more wet so I added another 5 minutes for both.  I love the idea of this for a bechamel.
