I don’t have a video for this recipe.
If I had a photo, I would most certainly use it. That is... unless the photo I have sucks. For now, you'll just have to picture a big heaping helping of
Cauliflower Cheese
...in your mind.

Cauliflower Cheese

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds cauliflower florets (about 2 medium heads cut up)
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Kosher salt
  • Coarse ground black pepper
  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 6 tablespoons flour
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 cup cream
  • 4 cups aged cheddar, shredded (I used a chive onion version)
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • Crispy fried onions for serving  

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450
  2. Toss florets with oil, salt and pepper on a large sheet tray, and roast 15-20 minutes without turning. They should be firm with a little color - then remove and turn oven down to 375
  3. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat, add flour and cook stirring 2 minutes
  4. Slowly whisk in the milk a little at a time, until smooth and thickened, then whisk in the cream - stir until it coats a spoon
  5. Turn off the heat, and add 3 cups of the shredded cheese, a small handful at a time - stirring until smooth between handfuls
  6. Add roasted cauliflower and gently stir to coat, then transfer to a baking dish, top with remaining cheddar and Parmesan, and cover lightly with foil
  7. Bake covered at 375 for 15 minutes, remove the foil and cook another 15-20 or until bubbly and lightly golden
  8. Finish by topping with the crispy onions right before serving so they stay crunchy
