In case you missed the recipe – here it is! It is a simple and delicious side dish. And if you haven’t tried whipped cauliflower yet, you are missing out. It is an excellent alternative to mashed potatoes. And the citrus makes it light and bright.
Citrus & Herb Whipped Cauliflower
Summer time calls for bright and light meals that can be made quickly and go well with anything on the BBQ. When I think bright and light, citrus flavors always come to mind first. And this is how I developed this Citrus & Herb Whipped Cauliflower.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 heads Cauliflower cut into florets
- 3 tbsp Butter melted
- 1 Lemon zest & juice
- 1 Lime zest & juice
- 1 tsp Sea Salt
- 1 tsp White Pepper
- ⅔ cup Heavy Cream
- ½ cup Fresh Flat Leaf Parsley chopped
Instructions
- Prepare all of the ingredients.
- In a large pot, bring enough water to boil to cover cauliflower. Once at a full rolling boil, add the cauliflower, cover and cook for 15 minutes. Drain in colander, then transfer to mixing bowl.
- Using an immersion blender, begin to whip the cauliflower for 2-3 minutes (until larger chunks are gone). Then add in lemon zest, lime zest, butter, salt and pepper. Whip another 2-3 minutes to combine well. Then add in lemon juice, lime juice, and heavy cream. Whip until you reach a creamy consistency. Using a serving spoon, fold in parsley.
