This is a delicious dish that can easily be used as a main dish. This is a recipe that I only follow measurements on the milk, the rest is by eye only so a very easy and simple meal.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 medium head cauliflower, broken into small florets
¼ cup butter
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
salt and pepper to taste
¼ cup fine dry bread crumbs
3 egg yolks
3 egg whites
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place the cauliflower florets in a saucepan with about 2 inches of water. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 8 minutes, or until tender. Drain, and set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a small pan. Stir in the flour, and cook over low heat for 2 minutes. Gradually stir in the milk, and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper, and stir in most of the bread crumbs. Remove from the heat, and stir in the egg yolks, cheese, and finally cauliflower.
  • Whip the egg whites in a large glass or metal bowl until stiff. Fold the cauliflower mixture into the egg whites. Transfer to a ceramic or glass 2 quart casserole dish. Sprinkle the remaining bread crumbs on top.
  • Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, or until puffed and golden.

I'm not a big fan of cauliflower, but this recipe was actually really good. The cheese sauce was creamy and flavorful and the cauliflower was cooked just right.

This dish was a bit too cheesy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less cheese.

The cauliflower cheese was a bit too runny for my liking. I think I would have preferred it to be a bit thicker.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more cheese or maybe some herbs or spices.
