Portions: 1-2

Salt and Pepper

Equipment

Instructions

Cook the Cauliflower/Broccoli
Drain and put to the side
Melt the butter in a small Saucepan
Stir in the Flour and keep stirring for about a minute
Remove the saucepan from the heat
Slowly stir in the milk and keep stirring as you do so
Don't stop stirring!
Put the saucepan back on the heat (and yes you guessed it) keep stirring it for about a minute to thicken it a bit
The heat needs to be medium to high as we need it to start to boil (keep stirring by the way)
When it does come to the boil, simmer for 1-2 minutes and keep on stirring.
Add 3/4 of the Grated Cheese to the mixture and keep stirring it
Once the cheese has melted in to the sauce (takes just a few moments) remove from the heat
Add Salt and Pepper to taste
Put the already cooked Cauliflower/Broccoli in to a mixing bowl and pour over the cheese sauce
Very gently, using a spoon, ensure all the veg is covered in the delicious sauce
Transfer the Cauliflower/Broccoli in to an oven dish
Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top
Put in the oven at 180 for around 10-15 minutes until the cheese has melted and golden brown on top
Serve and enjoy!
