Description

This gratinated cauliflower is a hearty and uncomplicated dish, perfect for a cozy evening. The cauliflower is first pre-cooked in the Thermomix® and then covered with a creamy sauce seasoned with nutmeg. The grated cheese provides a golden brown crust and a delicious taste. I like to make this casserole when I need something quick and still want something warm and hearty on the table. It is vegetarian and can be prepared well in advance. If you like, you can add some bacon.
