Categories     side-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 stick (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter, plus extra at room temperature for greasing the baking dish
1 head broccoli, cut into florets
1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups half-and-half
2 cups shredded sharp white Cheddar, divided
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a large baking dish with butter and add the broccoli and cauliflower. Roast until slightly browned, about 15 minutes.
  • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter, whisk in the flour and let it cook over medium heat for 3 minutes. Turn the heat off, whisk in the half-and-half, then turn the heat up to high and keep whisking to avoid the flour from clumping. Add the Cheddar, salt and pepper and whisk until the cheese is melted.
  • Remove the broccoli and cauliflower from the oven and pour the Cheddar mixture over the top. Sprinkle evenly with the breadcrumbs and bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.

Provided by Tom Kerridge

Categories     Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch, Supper

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 large cauliflower , trimmed and sliced into 2 thick steaks through the root to hold shape (use the trimmings for another dish)
20g butter
20g flour
100ml milk
100g grated extra mature cheddar
large pinch cayenne pepper
1 tbsp English mustard
large splash of Worcestershire sauce or vegetarian alternative
2 egg yolks
red onion chutney and a watercress salad, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan and sear the cauliflower steaks for 3-4 mins on each side until nicely browned. Lift onto kitchen paper, then put in the fridge to keep cool. Can be done up to two days ahead.
  • To make the rarebit, melt the butter in a saucepan and stir in the flour to make a sandy paste. Add the milk a little at a time to make a thick white sauce. Bubble gently, stirring often for a couple of mins, then stir in the cheese, cayenne, mustard and Worcestershire sauce and stir until the cheese has melted into a smooth, rich sauce. Remove the pan from the heat and leave to cool slightly, then beat in the yolks and season. Transfer to an airtight container and keep in the fridge if not using straight away. Can be made up to two days ahead.
  • Before you assemble, take the cheesy rarebit mix out of the fridge at least an hour before you need it. Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Lay the cauliflower on a baking sheet, then divide and spread or press on the rarebit mix until completely covered. Bake in the oven for 12-15 mins, then finish under a hot grill until bubbling and golden. Transfer the cauliflower rarebits to two plates and serve with a spoonful of chutney and a generous handful of watercress salad. Perfect with a pint of beer.

Tips:

  • Utilize fresh vegetables: For an optimal flavor and texture, use fresh potato, cauliflower, and broccoli florets. Avoid frozen or pre-packaged options, as they may not provide the same level of quality and taste.
  • Cook the vegetables to perfection: Ensure that the vegetables are cooked through but still retain a slight crunch. Overcooking can result in mushy vegetables that lack flavor and texture.
  • Use high-quality cheese: Opt for high-quality cheddar cheese for a rich, creamy, and flavorful sauce. Grating your own cheese is recommended to achieve a smooth and even consistency.
  • Season judiciously: Use salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to season the vegetable mixture and the Welsh rarebit sauce. Adjust the amount of seasoning according to your preference.
  • Broil the casserole until golden brown: Broiling the casserole at the end of the cooking process will create a crispy, golden brown top that adds an extra layer of flavor and texture to the dish.

Conclusion:

This potato, cauliflower, and broccoli casserole with Welsh rarebit top is a delectable and versatile dish that combines the goodness of fresh vegetables with a creamy, cheesy sauce. Its hearty and flavorful nature makes it a perfect choice for a comforting family meal or a special occasion. With careful attention to the selection of ingredients, cooking methods, and seasoning, you can create a culinary masterpiece that will impress your taste buds and leave you craving for more.
