Individual Cauliflower Cheese!
Posted By Kerri
This week has so far been all about using up leftover things from the weekend. We’d originally intended to make cauliflower cheese with bacon but I was worried that we’d be hungry later on so decided to forgo the bacon for chicken instead. We roasted some chicken thighs with some onion, garlic and thyme but as the cauliflower cheese was the main attraction we’ve left those out of the photograph.
To make the cauliflower cheese, we steamed the cauliflower until it was almost cooked through and left it to “dry” out while making the white sauce. We used Delia’s all-in-one recipe which is really easy and never fails. Just add milk, butter and flour to the pan on a medium heat and whisk continually until it’s thickened. Turn the heat down as low as it will go and cook the flour out for six minutes. Grate in plenty of cheese, season and mix, then pour over the cauliflower. At this point I would normally add some mustard but I forgot.
The very best thing about this was that we both got lots of crunchy, cheesey bits from around the edge of the dish. Would have been great with bacon though.

How great do those look?!
Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum! Perfect for this time of year.
Looks great – I love those dishes!
My goodness that looks delicious! I need to make soon, thanks for sharing!
I love cauliflower and especially if it is baked. It is one of those great comfort foods! I put it up there with strawberries and cream or tomatoes and basil! Well done on the great photo!
My bloke adores this! Yours looks heavenly 🙂
How to make cauliflower better? Add cheese!! Yum ;]
Those look adorable: love the red dishes! And anything with cheese is great.
i would love the recipe for this! yum 🙂 please post it!
Where’s the recipe? This looks fabulous!
Thank you everyone, it really was delicious. I’ve added the recipe to the main post but not the quantities as I don’t have them to hand, will add those this evening.
This has just reminded me how ridiculously long it’s been since I made cauliflower cheese.
i think bacon and chicken could be the way forward 😉
My dad is crazy and stuffed my fridge with 2 heads of cauliflower. THIS IS PERFECT for my solution to getting some room in my fridge!!!
The Boy doesn’t like cheese. How outrageous is that?! I think if I made this it might change his mind, though…
Hmm, not liking cheese is outrageous indeed Lizzie!
Oh – gorgeous!
Niamh’s last blog post..January roundup!
Also – beautiful photograph.
Thanks Niamh 🙂
Pretty tasty, especially if the cauliflower is right from the garden. +1 for bacon too, nice addition.
