Cauliflower Triple Cheese Gratin Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Layer the cauliflower, heavy cream, and the 3 cheeses in a medium casserole dish. Season with salt and pepper. Roast for 20 to 30 minutes or until the cauliflower is soft and the sauce has thickened slightly. Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Combine cream, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, Asiago cheese, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Scoop 1 cup of cheese mixture in bottom of a baking dish. Layer cauliflower into baking dish; cover with remaining cheese mixture.
• Bake in preheated oven until cauliflower is easily pierced with a fork, 20 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Cook the cauliflower florets in a large pot of boiling salted water for 5 to 6 minutes, until tender but still firm. Drain.
• Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Add the flour, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon for 2 minutes. Pour the hot milk into the butter-flour mixture and stir until it comes to a boil. Boil, whisking constantly, for 1 minute, or until thickened. Off the heat, add 1 teaspoon of salt, the pepper, nutmeg, 1/2 cup of the Gruyere, and the Parmesan.
• Pour 1/3 of the sauce on the bottom of an 8 by 11 by 2-inch baking dish. Place the drained cauliflower on top and then spread the rest of the sauce evenly on top. Combine the bread crumbs with the remaining 1/4 cup of Gruyere and sprinkle on top. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and drizzle over the gratin. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the top is browned. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Cook the cauliflower in a little boiling water until tender - about 5 minutes. Drain and chop roughly.
• Preheat the grill. Mix the cauliflower with the mustard, butter or olive oil, mayonaise, cream brie and guyere cheese and season.
• Put the mixture into a shallow casserole dish and sprinkle the top with ground almonds and the grated cheddar cheese.
• Grill for about 5-10 minutes and serve at once.

Steps:

• *If oven baking, pre-heat oven to 225C or 450°F.
• Trim the cauliflower & break into small florets.
• Boil in salted water for 10-15 minutes or until just tender.
• Drain in a colander and then place in a buttered ovenproof baking dish.
• Add the milk, flour and butter to a saucepan.
• Heat and whisking with a wire whisk continuously until the sauce thickens, boils and is smooth.
• Allow to simmer for a further 2 minutes.
• Add three-quarters of the grated cheese, mustard, a pinch of nutmeg and seasoning.
• Cook for further minute stirring well.
• Pour the sauce over the cauliflower.
• Mix the remaining cheese, and breadcrumbs, if using, together, sprinkle over the top.
• Place under a hot grill until golden brown, OR, bake in a pre-heated oven 225C/450F for about 15 to 25 minutes until golden brown and bubbling.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• For the sauce, melt the butter in a shallow saucepan. When it's just starting to sizzle, stir in the flour to make a paste. Cook for a minute, then gradually whisk in the milk until you have a smooth, thick sauce. Stir through the mustard, cream cheese, truffle oil (if using) and parmesan, and cook over a low heat until thickened. Season with lots of black pepper.
• Heat oven to 140C/120C fan/gas 1. Trim the leaves off the cauliflowers and slice into rough steaks about 1cm thick. Don't worry about the outside bits not being slices - it will all be used. Assemble the dish a bit like a lasagne. Spoon a quarter of the cheese sauce into a large baking dish and spread it out, then add half of the cauliflower. Repeat the process, finishing with a thick layer of sauce. Scatter over the mozzarella, and the gruyère or cheddar and crispy onions.
• Bake for 1 hr 30-1 hr 45 mins until the cheese is golden and the cauliflower is soft but not mushy. If you want a golden finish, you can grill it (keep an eye on it) or leave it in when you turn the oven up for the crackling, if making the salt & vinegar roast pork as well. Once baked, leave to stand for 10 mins before serving in the middle of the table.
