- 3. Bake the cauliflower until golden brown. Bake at 375°F [190°C] for 30-40 minutes, or until the outer parts of the florets are golden brown and starting to crisp4. Transfer roasted cauliflower to a pot for mashing.
Stovetop Method:
5. Fry cauliflower until golden brown. Heat oil in a deep fry pan or pot over medium-high heat. Add the cauliflower florets, salt liberally, and fry, stirring occasionally until the cauliflower has started to brown and become crispy. Do not cover the pot, you want the steam to escape.
Mashing/Whipping The Cauliflower
6. Whip/mash with an immersion blender. In a pot over low heat add cubed cream cheese and butter. Allow the cheese and butter a moment to soften from the heat and then begin to breakdown the large florets with an immersion blender by repeatedly plunging the blender down on top of the cauliflower until it breaks down into a smooth mash. Continue to whip for several minutes until you are at your desired consistency
