Cooking Instructions
- 1
Separate the cauliflower florets, discarding the stem. Place them in cold water with lemon juice to wash.
- 2
Bring a pot of plenty of water with a pinch of salt to a boil. Once boiling, add the cauliflower florets and a splash of milk, leaving it uncovered to cook. Be careful, as when the water returns to a boil, the milk can cause it to rise and overflow. Cook until tender.
- 3
Meanwhile, prepare the béchamel: In a pan, melt the butter with the olive oil, then add the flour, stirring. Gradually add the cold milk and cream, stirring constantly. Add a pinch of salt and cook until it becomes a thick cream.
- 4
If there are any lumps in the béchamel, blend it with a hand mixer.
- 5
Once the cauliflower is cooked, drain it well and place it in a baking dish. Pour the béchamel over it and sprinkle with shredded cheese to taste.
- 6
Place in the oven to gratin until the béchamel and cheese are golden brown.

I had this dish on my first station, years ago. Just a good, simple combo. I changed up the sauce a bit though, swapping a roux base for a cauliflower purée to lighten it up and avoid wasting the tasty cauliflower core. Ryan Goodwin -

Creamy baked cauliflower Creamy baked cauliflower
Being a bi-ethnic family, we celebrate Christmas twice. On Christmas Eve it's Filipino-style. This year we had the roast and noodles catered, but I noticed we didn't have any veg. So I whipped up this baked cauliflower dish. There were a few initial comments around the table that the dish wasn't Filipino, but no one complained once they tasted it. Robert Gonzal -
