Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 ounces fresh cauliflower
6 ounces fresh broccoli
2 tablespoons butter
2 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 ½ cups milk
1 (8 ounce) package shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon English mustard
cayenne pepper to taste
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • In a medium saucepan with enough water to cover, boil cauliflower and broccoli until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain, and transfer to a medium baking dish.
  • In a separate medium saucepan over low heat, melt butter, and stir in flour. Gradually whisk in milk, and increase heat to medium. As the mixture thickens, whisk in English mustard, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper. Continue whisking until a thick sauce has formed, being careful not to allow the mixture to boil. Sprinkle in 2/3 of the cheese, and stir until melted.
  • Pour sauce over broccoli and cauliflower. Bake in the preheated oven 30 minutes, until bubbly and lightly brown. Sprinkle with remaining cheese during the final 10 minutes of cooking.

I thought this dish was just okay. I'm not really a fan of cauliflower, so that might have been part of the problem.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cheese sauce turned out grainy. I think I might have overcooked it.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. I would have liked it more if the cheese sauce had been a bit lighter.

This recipe was a great starting point, but I made a few changes to it. I added some garlic and onion to the cheese sauce and I also used a different type of cheese.

I thought this dish was a bit bland. I would have liked it more if there had been more spices or herbs added to the cheese sauce.

I loved the crispy topping on this dish. It added a nice contrast to the soft cauliflower and broccoli.

This was a great way to get my kids to eat their vegetables. They loved the cheesy sauce and the fact that the cauliflower and broccoli were hidden inside.

I'm not a huge fan of cauliflower, but this dish was surprisingly good! The broccoli and cheese sauce helped to balance out the cauliflower's flavor.
