Instructions for Cauliflower and broccoli gratin

To prepare the Cauliflower and broccoli gratin recipe, please follow these instructions:

Preheat the oven to 180 ° C. Cut garlic and sour in a pan of medium heat with butter. When the butter is melted, add the flour and heat it for one minute, then add the milk gradually and stir until the sauce is smooth. Add broccoli (cut up first if you use fresh) and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until broccoli is boiled tenderly, blend with a spell blender (add an extra spatula of milk to loosen if you use fresh broccoli). Peel half of Cheddar in the sauce and season with salt and pepper.
Arrange cauliflower in a suitable size refractory dish (cut into bouquets first if you use fresh), pour the broccoli sauce over and tear the remaining Cheddar over. Blend the bread into a coarse grater in a food processor, then add thyme leaves and almonds. Add some oil and a pinch of salt and pepper, then spread it evenly over cauliflower and cheese. Bake for 1 hour or until golden and boiled.
Tip
It is really fun to play with different cheeses in this dish and how they taste and melt. It is also nice to try different vegetables instead of cauliflower - for example, 2-3 cm bites of celeriac, squash, potatoes or porridge would all work. Try out and see what your favorites are - some vegetables may take longer to make than others, so try a knife to check that they are cooked before serving.
