Instructions
 

  • Break the cauliflower head into florets and make sure they are small pieces and not too big. Then add them to a large bowl and season with salt, add about a tablespoon of water and microwave for 6-8 minutes till the cauliflower is nice and tender. To test run your knife through a floret and it should cut through easily.
  • Then heat the butter in a pan and add a teaspoon of avocado oil or olive oil to prevent the butter from burning. Add in the cauliflower and sautee on a high heat. Season with pepper and nutmeg.
  • Cook the cauliflower till it starts to get some lovely golden brown colour on it. Then deglaze with a splash or two of water. Add in the cheese and mix well till a sauce starts to form. Finally add in the cream and then mix till you get a smooth and creamy sauce.
  • Now cook the cauliflower cheese till the sauce is the consistency you like. Alternatively you can transfer to an oven proof dish, add more cheese on top and bake it till the cheese turns golden brown.
  • Serve with some freshly cracked black pepper on top.
