Ingredients

Steak - 3 oz

Olive Oil - 1 tablespoon

Cauliflower - 1 ½ cups

Heavy Whipping Cream - 1 tablespoon

Butter - 1 tablespoon

Salt - 1 teaspoon

Directions:

  1. Salt and pepper steak.  Pat dry with paper towels.
  2. Cut cauliflower into small florets.  Add cauliflower, water, and 1 teaspoon of salt to a sauce pot.  Bring to a boil.  Boil for about  20 minutes or until cauliflower is soft.
  3. Add 1 tablespoon oil to a pan, turn on medium-high heat.
  4. Once pan is hot, smoking lightly - gently place steak into hot pan.
  5. Let cook on one side for 3 minutes, do not move the steak, if you want a crispy sear.
  6. Flip steak over, cook on other side for 3 more minutes.  Finish cooking steak to desired temperature in the oven (if your pan is oven safe).  
  7. Once cauliflower is soft, remove from heat.  Pour cauliflower through a colander.
  8. Take warm cauliflower and mix together cream, butter, and salt with a whisk.
  9. Cut steak.  Serve on top of cauliflower.

This is a take on steak and mashed potatoes.  Try steamed cauliflower with cream and butter, it’s just as good as mashed potatoes (maybe even better).
