Creamy, cheesy but not too thick or heavy, this is a good side for a pork loin.

Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
4 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, cut into thin strips
Florets of 1 large head cauliflower, cut into ¼ inch lengthwise slices
2 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups heavy or whipping cream
Pinch cayenne pepper
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
1 1/2 cups grated Swiss cheese
1/2 cup cup chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté 2 minutes. Stir in the prosciutto and sauté 2 minutes more.
  • Add the cauliflower and cook just until it begins to lose its crispness, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Stir in the flour and then the cream. Blend well. Season with the cayenne and salt and pepper to taste. Heat to boiling and immediately remove from the heat.
  • Pour the cauliflower into a shallow au gratin dish. Top with the cheese and parsley. Bake until the top is lightly browned and bubbling, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately.

This dish was a disappointment. The cauliflower was mushy and the cheese sauce was bland.

I'm not a big fan of cauliflower, but this dish was surprisingly good. The cheese sauce was creamy and flavorful and the cauliflower was cooked perfectly.

The cauliflower gratin was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices next time.

Absolutely delicious! The cauliflower was perfectly tender and the cheese sauce was rich and flavorful. I served it with a side of roasted vegetables and it was a hit with my family.
