Millet-Cauliflower Mashed Potatoes
- 1/2 cup millet
- 2 1/2 cups water
- 4 ounces sliced cauliflower stems and florets (about 1 1/2 cups)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Butter, roasted garlic, wasabi, horseradish, and/or sour cream to taste (optional)
- Wash and drain the millet, then put it in a 1-quart saucepan with a lid.
- Add the water, cauliflower, and salt.
- Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to the lowest simmer.
- Cover and cook for 35 minutes, checking and giving it a stir after 30 minutes.
- The millet will break open and thicken the liquid in the pot.
- When the millet is very soft and thick, take it off the heat and let stand for 5 minutes.
- Use a blender for the smoothest puree, but a food processor will work almost as well.
- Puree until the mixture is as smooth as you can get it.
- Add butter or other flavorings, if desired, and serve in place of mashed potatoes.
