    I've given this 5 as it was so simple to make, offered something different from our normal mid week meals and I really enjoyed it! I've never had mashed cauliflower before but will definitely be making it again. One word of warning though - be careful not to add too much milk, do just the smallest splash. We overdid it slightly and the mash was slightly sloppy - still tasted great though!

    Tried the mashed cauliflower today. Never knew cauliflower could be made into a mash. I was pleasantly surprised. It tasted very nice. Sometimes cauliflowers have an aftertaste bitterness with them. However, here, because it has been cooked until very tender, it lost that bitterness making it really tasty. Also very easy to make.

    This was a lovely, easy meal to prepare, great for a weekday evening. Having read the previous comments, I probably went a bit too light on the milk for the cauliflower, but it still tasted good, and was enjoyed by both me and my husband.

    this was really easy and tastey. I deided to do half potato, half cauliflower as i didn't think it wouldbe filling enough otherwise. It made it have a lighter flavour, without really being able to tell it was there - so great if you're trying to sneak in another of your 5-a-day! Wil definiately try just cauli mash anoher time though.

    Did enjoy this, the sauce was great and the cauliflower mash was a nice change. Served with purple sprouting instead of spinach.

    Freaky! * Never would've thought of that for cauli! Anyone tried a bit of PSB in the mash? *Something akin to... http://www.thetecnica.com/2011/10/its-bit-freaky-with-this-wireless.html
