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 olive oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Add the garlic cloves and cook, turning occasionally, until golden on all sides and soft enough to press flat with a spoon, about 8–10 minutes. Watch closely toward the end, as the garlic can brown quickly.
