Cooking cue
Cook until the thickest piece reaches 165F and the juices run clear.
- Set a large skillet or saute pan over medium to medium-high heat and keep the ingredients close so the cooking stays fast and even.
- 1. Prepare the riced cauliflower using your preferred method: steam for 5 minutes, cook in a pot with 1/4 cup water on medium-high for 5 minutes while stirring constantly, or microwave covered with 1/4 cup water on high for 5 minutes.
- 2. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, then add the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute until softened and fragrant. Remove from heat.
- 3. Transfer the cooked cauliflower, parmesan cheese, heavy cream, and sour cream to a food processor and process on high for 30-40 seconds, pulsing as needed.
- 4. Add the melted garlic butter and pulse to incorporate.
- 5. Gradually add bone broth while pulsing until you reach your desired consistency—less broth for a thicker mash, more for a smoother purée.
- Cook until the thickest piece reaches 165F and the juices run clear.
- 6. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve garnished with sliced green onions or keto gravy if desired.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning at the end, then serve while everything is hot or freshly chilled.
