Mashed potatoes (cauliflower)

[velvett]

For those not doing a CKD, what could you put in with the cauliflower instead of cream cheese???

Olive oil.


You can also cook some red cabbage and shredded carrots and mix in with the cauliflower.

Some people use mayo as well.
Season well - try some white pepper, nutmeg and if you're using it some kosher salt.

opps how could i forget that ...
Obiwan how come when I make my own it always seems more runny then the kind I get at a greek resturant? What could i be doing wrong?

simple solution is to sit it in a coffee fiter for a few hours but the truth is:

k first off they do not use regular yoghurt
the stuff they use is called pressed yoghurt
you can make you own by putting your yoghurt in a coffee filter then into a strainer over a bowl in the refrig overnight
and as for the cukes, grate them, salt them then sit them in a colander for 20 minutes

suggest

1 750 ml plain yoghurt, set in a coffe filter to drain over night *
1 english cucumber, washed, grated and salted left to drain
2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tsp white vinegar
salt and freshly ground pepper to taste


when every thing is prepared combine and let sit at least 20 minutes
*(lo fat or full fat does not matter i use bulgarian.......check the labels they are not thickening yoghurt and sour cream with modified corn start...bulgarian tends to be unadulterated)
