The Best Ever Cauliflower Cheese
Could this be the best cauli cheese recipe ever? Elevated with a hit of truffle, the cheddar sauce is the perfect consistency to smother the cauliflower florets, leaving you with a deliciously decadent dish. Corrrr.
Ingredients (Serves 2-4)
- 1 cauliflower
- 80g mature cheddar
- ½ Chicken stock cube
- Knob of butter
- 1 tsp flour
- 8ml truffle flavoured extra virgin olive oil
- 5.5g dijon mustard
- 200g pot of crème fraîche
Method (Takes 55 mins)
- Cut the cauliflower and add the florets to a baking tray, drizzle with 1 tbsp vegetable oil and season with a pinch of salt.
- Put the tray in the oven and cook for 15-20 minutes or until tender and golden.
- While the cauli cooks, dissolve 1/2 chicken stock cube in 50ml of boiled water and grate the cheddar cheese.
- Heat a pot over a medium heat with a small knob of butter. Once melted, add flour and cook for 1-2 minutes or until a roux (sandy paste) has formed.
- Stir the chicken stock gradually into the roux and stir in the truffle flavoured oil, Dijon mustard, crème fraîche and grated cheese – this is your truffle cheese sauce.
- Once roasted, add the cauliflower to an oven-proof dish and pour over the truffle cheese sauce. Put the dish in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden.
