Cauliflower Puree

Ingredients:

1 head (1 3/4 pounds) cauliflower

3 potatoes

1 cup water or vegetable stock, preferably homemade

2 to 3 tablespoons heavy cream or milk

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened

Coarse salt, freshly ground pepper and some nutmeg

Cooking instructions:

Chop the cauliflower and the potatoes in cubes. Boil the water/vegetable stock with a pinch of salt, but not too much because the idea is to steam the vegetables. Put the vegetables in the boiling water. Cover the pot with the cover. After 10-12 minutes they’ll be ready. Drain the water. Put the vegetables in a blender. Add some butter, milk and/or heavy cream. Mix it well – the texture has to be very soft and silky. Add some more salt, pepper and the secret ingredient – a pinch of nutmeg. Put the mixture on the warm stove for 1-2 minutes and if it necessarily – add some more butter. Bon appétit!
