INGREDIENTS FOR GARLIC MASH

INSTRUCTIONS

1
Preheat the oven to 180 °C and line a baking dish (15 cm × 15 cm or ⌀ 20 cm) with baking paper.
2
Place the cauliflower in the baking dish, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with paprika, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Mix to coat the cauliflower with the spices and bake for 35–40 minutes at 180 °C. Halfway through baking, add 100 ml of water to the cauliflower to soften it and prevent it from drying out.
3
Meanwhile, peel the potatoes and cut them into smaller cubes. Place them in a small pot, cover with cold water, add salt, and cook for 15–20 minutes over medium to high heat.
4
In a small saucepan, combine the milk and garlic and cook for about 10 minutes over low heat. Then remove the saucepan from the heat, add the margarine, and let it melt.
5
Drain the cooked potatoes and mash them. Add the prepared milk and Parmesan, and whisk into mashed potatoes. Finally, add the mint.
6
Divide the roasted cauliflower onto 2 plates, add the mash, and serve.
