Or tried roasting it with spices until golden? Next time you&#8217;re making mash, go for half potato and half cauliflower for a creamy, delicious mash and it works a treat to get more veg into kids too! Or, for golden roast cauliflower, toss cauliflower with olive oil, Moroccan or Indian spices, salt and pepper, and roast at 220degC for about 15 minutes &#8211; watch the video below to see how Nadia does it, then try for yourself with our Crispy Skinned Chicken Breast with Sun-dried Tomato Pesto and Cauliflower Potato Mash recipe below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-videopress\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"VideoPress Video Player\" aria-label='VideoPress Video Player' width='1080' height='608' src='https:\/\/video.wordpress.com\/embed\/vXq9AxDT?preloadContent=metadata&amp;hd=0&amp;cover=1' frameborder='0' allowfullscreen allow='clipboard-write'><\/iframe><script src='https:\/\/v0.wordpress.com\/js\/next\/videopress-iframe.js?m=1770107250'><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.myfoodbag.co.nz\/my-choice\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"85\" src=\"https:\/\/www.myfoodbag.co.nz\/explore\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Asset-138.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1741\" title=\"\" srcset=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Asset-138.png 1000w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Asset-138-300x26.png 300w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Asset-138-768x65.png 768w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Asset-138-980x83.png 980w, \/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Asset-138-480x41.png 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-2192\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"2192\" data-servings=\"4\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-tinysalt-no-image\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-template-ts-container\">\n    <div class=\"wprm-ts-header\">   \n        \n        <h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name wprm-block-text-bold\">Crispy Skinned Chicken with Sundried Tomato Pesto and Potato Cauli Mash<\/h2>\n        <div class=\"wprm-recipe-summary wprm-block-text-normal\"><span style=\"display: block;\">Crispy skinned chicken breast with cauliflower and potato mash, sundried tomato pesto and almonds.<\/span><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"wprm-ts-main-meta\">\n        <div class=\"wprm-recipe-block-container wprm-recipe-block-container-inline wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-servings-container\" style=\"\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-label wprm-block-text-bold wprm-recipe-servings-label\">Servings <\/span><span class=\"wprm-recipe-servings wprm-recipe-details wprm-block-text-normal\">4<\/span><\/div>\n        <div class=\"wprm-recipe-meta-container wprm-recipe-times-container wprm-recipe-details-container wprm-recipe-details-container-inline wprm-block-text-normal\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe-block-container wprm-recipe-block-container-inline wprm-block-text-normal wprm-recipe-time-container wprm-recipe-custom-time-container\" style=\"\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-label wprm-block-text-bold wprm-recipe-time-label wprm-recipe-custom-time-label\">Ready in <\/span><span class=\"wprm-recipe-time wprm-block-text-normal\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-details wprm-recipe-details-minutes wprm-recipe-custom_time wprm-recipe-custom_time-minutes\">40<span class=\"sr-only screen-reader-text wprm-screen-reader-text\"> minutes<\/span><\/span> <span class=\"wprm-recipe-details-unit wprm-recipe-details-minutes wprm-recipe-custom_time-unit wprm-recipe-custom_timeunit-minutes\" aria-hidden=\"true\">mins<\/span><\/span><\/div><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n    <div class=\"wprm-ts-equipment-ingredients\">\n        \n        <div id=\"recipe-2192-ingredients\" class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredients-container wprm-recipe-2192-ingredients-container wprm-block-text-normal wprm-ingredient-style-regular wprm-recipe-images-before\" data-recipe=\"2192\" data-servings=\"4\"><h3 class=\"wprm-recipe-header wprm-recipe-ingredients-header wprm-block-text-bold wprm-align-left wprm-header-decoration-none\" style=\"\">Ingredients<\/h3><div class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-group\"><h4 class=\"wprm-recipe-group-name wprm-recipe-ingredient-group-name wprm-block-text-bold\">Mash<\/h4><ul class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredients\"><li class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient\" style=\"list-style-type: disc;\" data-uid=\"1\"><span class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-amount\">800g<\/span>&#32;<span class=\"wprm-recipe-ingredient-name\">potatoes, peeled &amp;
