Ingredients

4 servings

1 large head cauliflower (about 2 lb), cut into florets
½ cup full-fat coconut milk
¼ cup coconut cream
2 tbsp coconut oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
¼ tsp ground turmeric
¾ tsp fine sea salt, plus more to taste

For serving

2 tbsp fresh chives, thinly sliced (optional)
1–2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling (optional)

Instructions

1
Fill a large pot with 1 inch of water and bring to a boil over high heat. Set a steamer basket inside, add the cauliflower florets, cover, and steam until completely tender and a fork slides through the thickest pieces with no resistance, 12–15 minutes.
2
While the cauliflower steams, warm the coconut oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant and just softened, about 1–2 minutes. Watch closely — minced garlic can brown quickly. Remove from heat and stir in the turmeric.
