- Once the water is boiling, add the cauliflower florets.
- Cook the florets for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Drain the cauliflower in a colander and let it sit for a minute to remove excess water.
3. Prepare the Garlic:
- Peel the garlic clove and mince it finely.
4. Blend the Cauliflower Mixture:

- Blend until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.

- Drizzle the warm chicken gravy over the cauliflower puree.
- Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or chives if desired (optional).
7. Enjoy:
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious cauliflower puree with chicken gravy and garlic!

Tips:

- Ensure the cauliflower is cooked until very tender to achieve a smooth puree.

- Use an immersion blender for easier and quicker pureeing, but a food processor or regular blender will also work.

- Adjust the seasoning to taste; you might need more salt depending on your preference and the saltiness of your chicken gravy.

- For a lighter version, substitute the heavy whipping cream with milk or a non-dairy alternative.

- Roasting the garlic before adding it to the puree can add a sweeter, more mellow garlic flavor to the dish.

- Make sure the chicken gravy is hot when you serve it over the puree for the best flavor and consistency.

Enjoy your delicious and creamy cauliflower puree with chicken gravy and garlic. This dish is perfect for a cozy dinner or a special occasion. Its rich flavors and creamy texture make it a crowd-pleaser.
