Equipment
- 1 Food processor or blender
- 1 Steamer
- 1 Cutting board
- 1 Kitchen knife
Ingredients
- 1.5 Heads large cauliflower (~1lb)
- 1 Cup cheddar cheese (grated)
- 4 Oz sour cream
- 2 Rashers bacon
- 2 Tbsp chives (snipped or chopped)
- 3 Tbsp butter (unsalted)
- 1/4 Tsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Chop the cauliflower into florets and steam them for about 5 - 7 minutes. Let them sit uncovered after cooking for a few minutes to let excess water evaporate. Put the florets into a container and squeeze excess water out.
- Cook the bacon in a frying pan until it's well cooked and crispy. Then chop or crumble it into small bits
- Add the cauliflower into a food processor or blender and process until light and fluffy.
- Add the garlic powder, sour cream and butter (it's good to melt it in the microwave first). Process some more until it reaches your preferred consistency.
- Move into a serving bowl and add about half the grated cheese. Mix it in.
- Add the remaining cheese, chives and bacon onto the top and allow the cheese to melt. You can put it back in the microwave to help the cheese melt if you like.
