Cauliflower-Leek Puree
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 head cauliflower, coarsely chopped
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 leek, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic-chopped
- 2/3 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup parsley-chopped
DIRECTIONS:
In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the cauliflower until very soft, 12 to 15 minutes; drain. Meanwhile in a medium skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter oer medium heat. Add the leeks and garlic and cook, stirring occassionally, until the leeks are transparent and very soft, about 8 minutes.
Using a food processor and working in batches, puree the cauliflower and the leek mixture with the cream. In a small skillet, melt the remaining butter over medium heat. Add the panko and toast, tossing, until golden, but watch carefully because it will burn fast. Top the puree with the toasted panko and parsley.
