Cauliflower Gratin
The addition of a little bit of horseradish and mustard to the cheese-sauce adds extra zest to this classic dish.
Ingredients
| 7 cups | cauliflower, cut into florets | 1.1 kg | |
| 1/4 cup | butter, unsalted | 55 g | |
| 2 tbsp | white flour (all purpose) | 16 g | |
| 2 cups | milk, partly skimmed, 2% | 500 mL | |
| 3 tbsp | horseradish | 45 g | |
| 2 tsp | apple cider vinegar | 10 mL | |
| 2 tsp | Dijon mustard | 10 g | |
| 60 g | Emmenthal cheese, grated | 3/4 cup | |
| 1 pinch | salt [optional] | 0.2 g | |
| ground pepper to taste [optional] |
Method
- Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F.
- Prepare the cauliflower : cut into equal-size florets, then blanch them in a pot of salted boiling water until crisp-tender, about 6 min. Drain and transfer the florets to a baking dish.
- While the cauliflower is cooking, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and stir 2 min, paying attention not to let it burn. Gradually whisk in the milk, then cook until the sauce boils and thickens, whisking constantly, 3-4 min. Mix in the horseradish, vinegar, mustard, and grated cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the cauliflower and mix to coat.
- Bake in the middle of the oven until the cauliflower is golden-brown on top, about 25 min. For a nice crust, turn on the top broiler for the last 2 minutes. Serve hot.
Remarks
The cauliflower and sauce can be prepared a couple days ahead, chilled in the refrigerator, then baked just before serving.
