Instant Pot Cauliflower

cauliflower (1 1/2 to 2 pounds)

water

olive oil

salt

Italian seasoning

garlic powder

lemon

Chop the cauliflower into florets. Add it to the Instant Pot with the water. Lock the lid of the Instant Pot. Place the pressure release handle (vent) in the “Sealing” position.

Cook on high pressure for 2 minutes

Press the Pressure Cook button, making sure the “High Pressure” setting is selected, and set the time. Note that it takes about 5 minutes for the pot to “preheat” and come up to pressure. (Avoid touching the metal part of the lid.)

Quick release

Once the timer beeps, vent the remaining steam from the Instant Pot by moving the pressure release handle to “Venting”, covering your hand with a towel or hot pad. Never put your hands or face near the vent when releasing steam. Open the pressure cooker lid. Test the cauliflower and if it is the desired tenderness, move to Step 4. Otherwise cook an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute. (It depends on pressure cookers, so once you have your desired timing use that each time.)

Carefully remove the cauliflower to a bowl, draining any liquid. Toss with the remaining ingredients. Taste and add additional salt as necessary, then serve. (Store leftovers refrigerated.)

Garlic And Herb Instant Pot Cauliflower With Delicious Gravy

garlic

tbsp fresh thyme (or 1 tsp dried)

parsley

lemon juice

tsp smoked paprika

salt and pepper

onion

tsp oil

vegetable stock

tsp thyme (or more if fresh)

whole wheat flour

In a small bowl combine all the ingredients listed under marinade.

Cut leaves from the bottom of the cauliflower head. Carefully trim the stem flush without cutting the florets. It will help the cauliflower to sit flat on the trivet.

Rub the prepared garlic-herb marinade on the cauliflower head evenly.

For the gravy heat oil in saute mode of the Instant Pot. Add onion and whole garlic cloves; cook until translucent.

Then add vegetable stock, thyme and lemon juice. Place the trivet into the Instant Pot.

Put the whole cauliflower head on the trivet. Cook for 3 min on manual high-pressure mode. Allow pressure to release naturally for 5 min and then quick release the remaining pressure.

Carefully transfer the cauliflower to an oven-safe dish or tray. Optionally, broil it 3-4 min in the oven to get a nice crust.

Turn on the saute mode in the Instant Pot. Add flour to the gravy base and blend everything using a hand blender until it gets to a smooth consistency. Add salt and pepper according to taste.

Cook the gravy for 3-4 min and serve warm with the cooked cauliflower.
