Adding mustard enhances the cheese flavour – use ¼ teaspoon of either English or Wholegrain, or more if you prefer a more pronounced mustard flavour. Leftover cooked bacon or ham in the fridge? Chop it up and throw it in!
Serves 3. This classic sauce can be used in pasta and cauliflower cheese dishes and also tastes great poured over chicken and baked potatoes.
Melt butter in a saucepan and reduce heat to medium. Add the flour one spoonful at a time and whisk until it forms a thick paste. Gradually add in the milk, whisking constantly until the milk is incorporated and the paste becomes a sauce. Add less milk for a thicker sauce, more for a thinner sauce. If the sauce is too thin, whisk in more flour. Whisk for another 2 mins while the sauce bubbles then stir in grated cheese and add pepper to taste.
Chop cauliflower into small florets and boil/steam/microwave until tender. Tip into an oven proof dish, pour cheese sauce over, mix thoroughly, top with grated cheese and season. Bake at 180°C/Gas Mark 4 for 15 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbling. Also works well with other cooked vegetables.
