Cauliflower Cheese

Cauliflower Cheese

There is so much prejudice about cauliflower, and I’m not sure why. It’s in season right now and is a really good alternative to the generic broccoli or other veg which are overused in cooking today. This take on cauli-cheese makes a good supper or a fast lunch.

You Will Need: (Serves 2 Cauliflower Cheese)

• 1/2 head of Cauliflower, broken into large florets
• 20g Butter
• 20g Plain Flour
• 200ml Milk, semi-skimmed
• 75g Cheddar Cheese, plus extra on top
• 4 Button Mushrooms, sliced
• Small handful of Walnuts, roughly chopped

Method:

Preheat oven to 190*C.

Start by placing your cauliflower in a tray.

In a pan, melt the butter and flour before adding in the milk. Bring to the boil gently.

Stir in your cheese and whisk for 1 min.

Pour your cheese sauce over the cauliflower and throw on the mushrooms and walnuts.

Grate a little more cheese on top and bake for 30 mins.
