Vegetarian Cauliflower Recipe
|
This is our version of a traditional favourite cauliflower recipe. We have always known this as Cauliflower Cheese but you can call it Cauliflower Au Gratin if you want to be different.
You can use this recipe as a meal in itself or as a way of serving cauliflower with a larger meal.
To make 2 servings:
| kcal | |
| 1 small cauliflower | 100 |
| 100g (31/2 oz) cheddar cheese, grated | 403 |
| 15 (1/2 oz) butter | 108 |
| 250ml (1 cup) milk | 138 |
| 30ml (2 tbsp) flour | 58 |
| 15ml (1 tbsp) fresh chives, chopped | 1 |
| 5ml (1 tsp) Dijon mustard | 3 |
| Total | 811 |
Break the cauliflower into separate florets and cook in boiling water for 5 minutes.
In another pan warm the milk, flour and butter, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. When this sauce has come to the boil and thickened add the chives and about 3/4 of the grated cheese.
Drain the cooked cauliflower and transfer into a shallow oven-proof dish. Pour the sauce over the cauliflower, sprinkle on the rest of the cheese and put under the grill to brown.
Serve hot.
