By lisaS

Ingredients

• 1 extra large Onion; Chopped
• 3-4 tablespoons Butter
• 1 Medium Cauliflower head; Chopped (about 1 pound)
• Salt; to Taste
• 1 tablespoon Heavy cream(might need more)

Preparation

Step 1

In a medium skillet, sauté the onions in the butter over medium-low heat until caramelized. Season with a salt, to taste. Add a tad of sugar at end of saute to add color.

Meanwhile, put the cauliflower in a covered casserole dish along with 1 tablespoon water. Cover and microwave on HIGH power 5 minutes. Stir, then microwave another 5 minutes or until very tender. Let stand covered 5 minutes then drain any excess water. Put the cauliflower in a food processor with the chopping blade inserted. Add the cream and a little salt and process until very smooth. Transfer to a serving bowl and stir in the caramelized onions. Adjust the seasoning with salt, if needed.

Makes about 4-5 servings
