Step 2:
-
Set the oven to grill
-
Before you begin cooking, placing your oven on its grill setting.
-
Step 3:
-
Cook the cauliflower
-
Next, bring a pot full of water to a boil and season it with a little salt. Place the cauliflower into the water and bring it to a boil once more. Allow to cook, which should take about 5-7 minutes.
-
Test the cauliflower with a small knife, just as our chef is demonstrating now. It should enter the floret without resistance. Remove the pieces from the water and set aside on a tray.

Step 4:
-
Make the sauce
-
Next, place the saucepan over a medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt, giving it a little help by stirring. When melted, add the flour and blend the mixture until you get a smooth paste.
-
You can now add the milk, whisking it occasionally until the sauce begins to thicken. When it does begin to thicken, add the nutmeg, season with a little salt and pepper, and continue to whisk.
-
The moment when the sauce takes on a loose but thick consistency, remove it from the heat. Now, add one-half of the parmesan cheese. The final special touch of seasoning is the Dijon mustard, just to liven up the sauce's flavour.

If you want to save a little time, heat the milk up a little beforehand.

Assemble
-
Place the florets in an oven-proof dish and season them with a little bit of salt. Now spoon over generous amounts of the cheese sauce and sprinkle with the remaining parmesan cheese.

Step 6:
-
Grill and serve
-
Place under the grill for five or so minutes, checking to make sure that its surface does not burn. Remove and serve the cauliflower cheese immediately from the oven-proof dish. You can experiment with a myriad of different cheeses and see which ones are your favourites.
