CAULIFLOWER MASHED POTATOES

Yield: 8 servings

2½ pounds potatoes, not peeled cut into chunks

1 small cauliflower, chopped

2-cups water

S&P to taste

.

Pour water in the pressure cooker and place the burner on high. 

Place the potatoes and cauliflower in pressure cooker basket or steamer basket.  The basket keeps the potatoes out of the water and helps to remove them quickly.  Lock the lid in place.  Over medium high heat, bring up to pressure for 3 minutes.  Do a fast release by running the lid under cold running water. 

Put potatoes through a ricer.  Whip the potatoes with a mixer.  If the potatoes too dry add some of the hot water from the pressure cooker.  Add S&P to taste.  You can add buttery spreads and plain nut, rice, or soy milk for a richer taste.

Water Saving Tip:  Save water for soup or water plants with any remaining water after it’s cooled.
