Provided by Julia Reed

Categories     weekday, side dish

Time 20m

Yield 6 side-dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

12-pound head cauliflower (untrimmed)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, plus more to taste
2 teaspoons hot curry powder (like Madras)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper
Heavy cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Trim off leaves and cut out central core of cauliflower; break into florets. Peel the core and slice. Halve the florets lengthwise.
  • Bring 1/2 cup water to a boil in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat, add the core and florets and cook, covered, until tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Drain the cauliflower pieces, reserving cooking water, and place in food processor. Add 1/4 cup cooking water, butter, curry powder, salt and pepper and purée to desired consistency, adding more cooking liquid or more butter, if desired. (I like this purée a bit rough, but you can purée until smooth and add a bit of heavy cream for a richer and more elegant looking purée.) Check for seasonings and serve immediately or turn purée into a gratin dish and reheat in a 250-degree oven when ready to serve.
