Cauliflower Puree with Garlicky Swiss Chard
Serves 4
INGREDIENTS
1 large head of cauliflower, cut into small florets
3 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1/2 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
Pepper to taste
1 large bunch of swiss chard, tough stems removed and chopped
1 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
3 Tbsp. water
3 large cloves of garlic, minced
1/4 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1/4 cup pine nuts
salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
1. Set a steamer basket in a large pot and fill with water until it reaches just below the basket. Bring water to a boil. Add cauliflower, reduce heat, cover and steam until cauliflower is tender, about 10 minutes.
2. While cauliflower steams, heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pine nuts and toast for about 2 minutes, stirring often. Remove pine nuts and set aside. Add 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Once oil is heated, add the garlic and crushed red pepper flakes. Sauté for about 1 minute, stirring often. Add swiss chard and 3 Tbsp. water. Reduce heat to low and sauté until chard is tender and wilted, about 5 to 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Once cauliflower is ready, transfer to a high-speed blender and add 3 Tbsp. olive oil, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Process until smooth.
4. Place cauliflower in a large serving bowl topped with chard and pine nuts. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Enjoy!
