Beef and cauliflower with creamy parmesan sauce

While shopping for ingredients for tonight's planned dinner of beef and broccoli, my wife made the highly unusual request that I not make it Asian-style. Pardon me?! How does that work? Instead of going nuts trying to figure it out, I chose to keep my sanity and went another direction. Bye-bye went the broccoli and soy-based sauce, and in went the cauliflower and rosemary-infused parmesan cream. The challenge was met, and pretty tastily so.

While shopping for ingredients for tonight's planned dinner of beef and broccoli, my wife made the highly unusual request that I not make it Asian-style. Pardon me?! How does that work? Instead of going nuts trying to figure it out, I chose to keep my sanity and went another direction. Bye-bye went the broccoli and soy-based sauce, and in went the cauliflower and rosemary-infused parmesan cream. The challenge was met, and pretty tastily so.
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Pour the milk into a small saucepan on medium heat. Add a pinch of salt and the rosemary sprigs and let infuse for about 15 minutes, at just below a simmer. Be careful not to infuse for too long or the milk may end up tasting medicinal.

In a second small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and add the flour. Let cook for 3 minutes, whisking continually. Whisk in the rosemary-infused milk. Keep cooking/whisking until the sauce thickens to about the consistency of single cream. This will take about 2 to 3 minutes. Whisk in the parmesan cheese, nutmeg, and several grinds of black pepper. Let cook a final minute or two until the sauce is the consistency of syrup. Add extra salt as needed. Keep the sauce warm.

Add a splash of veg oil to a medium pan on high heat. Season your steak with salt and pepper, then lay it into the pan. Toss in the garlic cloves. Sear the steak to your liking (I find about 4 minutes per side to be about right). Use a spoon to baste the meat with the garlicky oil while frying. If the garlic cloves start to burn, pull them out and throw them away. Once cooked, remove the steaks to a plate to rest.

Pour off the oil from the pan and add a fresh splash of veg oil. Add the cauliflower chunks and give them a toss in the oil. Cover and let cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Season the cauliflower with salt and pepper, and pour them onto a serving platter. Slice the steak and lay those pieces on top. Drizzle everything with the parmesan sauce.

I ate a Swiss dish for the first time at my friend's house in Switzerland. The friend gave me a Swiss recipe book, so I tried to cook the same dish I had eaten.This dish is called 'Zürcher Geschnetzeltes' in Switzerland. The original is veal with cream sauce. Serving it with Rösti, Swiss hash brown potatoes, is the most standard way. Season the beef and sauce well, and the dish will be more delicious. This dish is good for pasta sauce too.

This is my spin on a classic pasta dish. I caramelized the ground beef to start, for extra flavour and to avoid any mushiness. I also added the fennel near the end of cooking, to maintain it's crunch. And, because the wife prefers creamy sauces, I added a splash of cream to turn the sauce rose. It was a hit. Robert Gonzal -
