- 1 head cauliflower cut into florets, trimmed of as much of the stems as possible
- 1 large russet potato peeled and cut into 1" cubes
- 1/4 cup full-fat sour cream
- 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Fill a large pot with about an inch and a half of water. Fit with a steamer basket and put the cauliflower and potatoes inside.
Cover, bring the water to a boil, and steam until very tender and easily pierced with a fork, about 15 minutes. Drain well and return the cooked vegetables to the empty pot on the stove top with the heat turned off.
Allow them to stand for about 3 minutes so that the water can evaporate and the cauliflower can dry out.
Add sour cream, Parmesan, salt, and pepper, and mash until smooth. Serve with minced fresh chives.
