Cauliflower Apple Puree

   Slash apple in several spots and place it in a small baking dish.

   Sprinkle oil on top.

4. 4

   Bake until apple is very tender and wilted, 30 to 40 minutes.

5. 5

   Cool, peel and core apple.

6. 6

   Reserve flesh.

7. 7

   Fill a large pot with water, season generously with salt, and bring to a boil.

8. 8

   Add cauliflower and cook until very tender, 5 to 7 minutes.

9. 9

   Drain and transfer to a food processor.

10. 10

    Add half the apple and three tablespoons of butter.

11. 11

    Process for 3 to 4 minutes, occasionally scraping down sides with a spatula; puree should get smoother and silkier the longer it processes.

12. 12

    Adjust seasoning, adding more apple, butter or salt as desired; there should be just a hint of sweetness from the apple.

13. 13

    Transfer to a serving dish, and serve hot.
