- 50 g plain flour
- 500 g full cream milk
- 150 g of cheddar cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil and add the cauliflower florets. Cook until tender but slightly raw inside (about 5-6 mins). Avoid overcooking, as they will continue to cook in the oven.

- Add the milk and cook for 6 min/90°C/speed 4.
- Add 100g of the cheese and blend for 10 sec/speed 5.
Assemble
- Once the cauliflower has boiled, drain it and place it into a large baking dish.
- Cover the cauliflower with the cheese sauce and sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top.
- Bake in the oven for 15 minutes until the cheese melts and starts to bubble.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
