CAULIFLOWER PUREE
This simple but surprisingly flavorful puree is a satisfying stand-in for mashed potatoes, and it couldn't be easier. There's no cream in it and only a teensy touch of butter, so it's good for anyone counting calories or carbs. It pleases the meat-and-potatoes eaters at my table, even though it contains neither.

CAULIFLOWER AND POTATO PUREE (PUREE DE CHOU-FLEUR)
Most classic purees usually include large quantities of butter or heavy cream. This recipe is lighter, less rich and delicious. One night I made dinner and, without asking, served a puree of cauliflower and potatoes with broiled chicken and string beans. The puree, which was enough for six, was devoured by four, and I now receive frequent requests for it. Use this recipe as a guide for pureeing other vegetables. Use a ration of potato to vegetable 1 to 3 or, at most, 1 to 2. NOTE: Using a food processor to puree potatoes alone will make them pasty, but using it to puree them together with another vegetable works exceptionally well. I had to do it in two batches because I have a smaller food processor. Put cauliflower in first then the potatoes on top. I did not have to use milk it was smooth enough without it. Yummy!

Steps:
- Boil the vegetables until tender, about 15 minutes for the cauliflower and 30 minutes for the potatoes.
- Drain the vegetables and puree them together in a food processor. The puree should be moist enough, but if it isn't, add some milk.
- Stir in the butter and season with the salt and pepper. Blend well. (The puree can be made a day or two in advance and covered with plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out. Reheat in a water bath (bain-marie) or microwave oven.).
- NOTE: When boiling vegetables for a puree, I find that very little additional liquid is necessary for the puree. I steamed my vegetables until soft.
- VARIATIONS:.
- In step 1, when you cook the cauliflower, add one or all of the following: 1 onion, diced; 2 garlic cloves, or 2 carrots, thickly sliced.
- PUREE de NAVETS (Turnip Puree): To use turnips in place of cauliflower, boil equal amounts of potatoes and turnips, cut into chunks, until tender, about 15 minutes for turnips and 30 minutes for potatoes. Prepare as above.
- PUREE de BROCOLI (Broccoli Puree): Substitute 3 pounds of broccoli for the cauliflower.
- At Home With The French Classics.

TWICE-BAKED POTATOES WITH CAULIFLOWER AND CHEESE
This is a recipe that nods at a lesson taught by the British writer Nigel Slater, which is to poach the cauliflower in bay-leaf scented milk while the potatoes bake. The soft florets are then mashed in with the potato flesh and a healthy splash of the cooked milk. Add butter. Top with cheese.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450.
- Scrub potatoes under running water; dry them, and rub the skin of each with the oil and a little salt. Pierce the skin of each in three or four places with the tines of a fork.
- Place the potatoes in the oven, and roast for 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the potatoes, until they offer no resistance when a knife is inserted in their centers.
- While the potatoes are baking, put the cauliflower into a saucepan set over medium-high heat, and add the milk and bay leaves. Heat until almost boiling, then reduce flame to low, and simmer until tender, approximately 20 minutes.
- When the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven, slice them open down the middle and use a spoon to scrape out their flesh into a bowl. Add the butter, the cauliflower and a healthy splash of the milk, and mash to combine. Spoon the mixture back into the empty jackets, place on a baking sheet and shower with cheese. Return to the oven for approximately 15 minutes, until the cheese is melted and golden.

Steps:
- Put potatoes and 2 teaspoons salt in a large heavy saucepan and generously cover with cold water (about 2 1/2 quarts). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, and simmer, partially covered, until potatoes are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
- While potatoes are boiling, heat 3/4 cup milk and 3 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan until butter is melted and milk is hot but not boiling. Keep warm off heat, covered.
- Drain potatoes well in a sieve or colander and return to hot saucepan. Add milk mixture, Fontina, and pepper, and mash with a potato masher or fork to desired consistency. Season with salt and keep warm, covered.
- Bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil, then add cauliflower and garlic and simmer until cauliflower is very tender, 13 to 15 minutes.
- Drain cauliflower in a colander and pulse with remaining 1/2 cup milk, 1/2 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano, and 3 tablespoons butter in a food processor until it's a chunky purée.
- Stir together mashed potatoes and cauliflower mixture in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a buttered 3-quart flameproof shallow baking dish (not glass).
- Heat oven to 425°F with rack in middle. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter and gently brush over potato-cauliflower mixture, then sprinkle evenly with remaining 1/4 to 1/2 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano (to taste). Bake until potato mixture bubbles around edges, about 20 minutes.
- Turn on broiler and broil 6 to 8 inches from heat until topping is browned in spots, 1 to 2 minutes.

- Prepare the cauliflower by removing the core and leaves, and cutting the head into 1 to 2 inch pieces.
- Place the cooked cauliflower in a blender or food processor with the olive oil, 1/2 cup of cheese, salt and pepper, and blend until smooth. (If you prefer, you can leave the cauliflower a little chunky for texture, but I like to blend it until it is smooth as mashed potatoes. If using it as a bed for stews or braised meats it is ready to use.)
