- ⅓ cup full-fat coconut milk

- 2 cloves garlic, peeled
- ¾ tsp fine sea salt, plus more to taste

Instructions
- 1
Add 1 inch of water to a large pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Place the cauliflower florets and garlic cloves in a steamer basket or directly in the pot, cover tightly, and steam for 12–14 minutes, until the cauliflower is completely tender and a fork slides through the thickest floret with no resistance.

While the cauliflower steams, warm the coconut milk and olive oil together in a small saucepan over low heat for 2–3 minutes, until the coconut milk is fluid and the mixture is just steaming — do not boil.
