Cover the pot and bring the water to a boil. Cook cauliflower until very tender (so that when you pierce it with a knife it goes in and comes out easily without catching), about 10 minutes.

step 5

Transfer cauliflower to a food processor. Squeeze the individual cloves of roasted garlic into the cauliflower. Add the Fresh Thyme (2 tsp) and secure the lid on the food processor.
