Transform humble cauliflower into a smoky vegetarian delight.
Ingredients:
  • 1L vegetable liquid stock
  • 1kg cauliflower
  • 50g butter
  • 62.50 ml plain flour
  • 83.33 gm cream
  • 250.00 ml grated cheddar
  • 6.00 gm sesame seeds
  • 1 tsp poppy seeds
  • 1 tsp caraway seeds
  • 2.50 gm smoked paprika
  • 50g stale bread, cut into 0.5cm cubes
Instructions:
  • In a saucepan, bring the flavorful Massel Liquid Stock Vegetable Style to a boil. Add cauliflower and simmer covered for 5 minutes. Gently turn the cauliflower and continue to simmer covered for another 5 minutes until it's partially cooked.
  • - Preheat your oven to 200C or 180C for fan-forced ovens. - Place the cauliflower in a 25cm round ovenproof baking dish. - Measure out the stock into a jug.
  • Heat the same pan over medium heat until dry. Melt the butter in the pan. Add flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in 1 1/2 cups of reserved stock until smooth. Pour in cream and cook, stirring, over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes until the sauce boils and thickens. Remove from heat, stir in cheese until smooth, season, and pour over cauliflower.
  • Mix seeds and paprika in a small bowl. Toss bread with oil in a medium bowl. Sprinkle cauliflower with bread and seed mixture. Bake for 25 minutes or until golden and bubbly. Serve baked cauliflower with steamed broccolini, if desired.
