Easy Cauliflower Broccoli Au Gratin Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a large baking dish with butter and add the broccoli and cauliflower. Roast until slightly browned, about 15 minutes.
• In a medium saucepan, melt the butter, whisk in the flour and let it cook over medium heat for 3 minutes. Turn the heat off, whisk in the half-and-half, then turn the heat up to high and keep whisking to avoid the flour from clumping. Add the Cheddar, salt and pepper and whisk until the cheese is melted.
• Remove the broccoli and cauliflower from the oven and pour the Cheddar mixture over the top. Sprinkle evenly with the breadcrumbs and bake until golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 2-quart gratin dish or casserole with cooking spray.
• In 2-quart saucepan, place steamer basket; add 1/2 inch water (water should not touch bottom of basket). Place broccoli and cauliflower in basket; cover tightly and heat to boiling. Reduce heat to low; steam covered 6 to 8 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain well. Place vegetables in gratin dish.
• In medium bowl, stir together mayonnaise, cheeses, onions, mustard and red pepper. Spoon over vegetables. Sprinkle with bread crumbs.
• Bake uncovered 20 to 25 minutes or until topping is golden. Garnish with parsley.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Cut or pull florettes from broccoli stem or stems. Each should be about 2 inches or slightly less in height. There should be about 6 cups.
• Cut cauliflower into equal-size florettes. There should be about 6 cups.
• Bring enough water to the boil to cover broccoli when added. Cook until tender but still resilient to the bite, about three minutes. Remove broccoli with slotted spoon and set aside in strainer.
• Add cauliflower to the boiling water and cook 7 minutes until tender but resilient to the bite. Remove cauliflower but reserve one-half cup of the cooking liquid.
• Melt butter in saucepan and add flour, stirring with wire whisk. When blended add milk, cream and reserved cooking liquid, stirring rapidly with the whisk. When thickened and smooth add nutmeg, cayenne, salt and pepper.
• Remove from heat and beat in egg yolk and 1/2 cup cheese.
• Select baking dish large enough to hold broccoli and cauliflower pieces compactly in one layer (a dish 15 by 10 1/2 by 2 1/2 inches is ideal). Arrange broccoli and cauliflower pieces alternately for color.
• Spoon cheese sauce over all. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Place on middle shelf of oven and bake 20 minutes or until golden brown on top.
