Kelly Ripa's Cauliflower Gratin

Ingredients

  • 2 heads of Cauliflower
  • 1 1/4 Cup of Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 2 tbsp. butter (+ extra for greasing your pan)
  • 1/4 Cup of Flour
  • 2 Cups of Milk
  • 1/8 tsp Nutmeg or less to taste (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Cut up Cauliflower.

Bring a pot of water with 1½ tablespoons of salt to a boil.
Add Cauliflower and cook until it’s tender, about 10 minutes. (Don’t overcook)

While cauliflower is cooking, lightly butter a baking dish.

In a sauce pan, melt 2 tbsp. butter and slowly whisk in flour for about a minute to make a roux.

Slowly whisk in milk followed by nutmeg, ½ tsp salt and pepper to a smooth consistency.

Add 1 cup of grated Parmesan cheese and stir until well combined.

Add cauliflower, mix well and pour it in to the baking dish.

Sprinkle ¼ cup of grated Parmesan cheese on top of cauliflower gratin and bake at 375 degrees for 25 minutes or until golden brown.
