Critical Success Points

  • First roast of cauliflower to develop flavor and prevent sogginess
  • Cooking the roux without lumps
  • Ensuring the cheese sauce fully coats the cauliflower before the final bake
  • Final bake until the top is golden and the sauce is set

Safety Warnings

  • The oven and roasting dish become extremely hot – use oven mitts.
  • Steam released when removing the cauliflower can cause burns; stand back.
  • Hot butter and cream can splatter – keep the saucepan away from the edge of the stove.
