Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 large cauliflower (leaves cut off), broken into pieces
- 500 ml milk
- 4 c. à soupe flour
- 50 g butter
- 100 g strong cheddar grated
- 2 -3 tbsp breadcrumbs if you have them
Method
- 1
Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil, then add 1 large cauliflower, broken into pieces, and cook for 5 mins – lift out a piece to test, it should be cooked.
- 2
Drain the cauliflower, then tip into an ovenproof dish. Heat oven to 220C/200C/gas 7.
- 3
Put the saucepan back on the heat and add 500ml milk, 4 tbsp flour and 50g butter.
- 4
Keep whisking fast as the butter melts and the mixture comes to the boil – the flour will disappear and the sauce will begin to thicken. Whisk for 2 mins while the sauce bubbles and becomes nice and thick.
- 5
Turn off the heat, stir in most of the 100g grated cheddar cheese and pour over the cauliflower. Scatter over the remaining cheese, and 2-3 tbsp breadcrumbs if using.

Put in the oven and bake for 20 mins until bubbling.
