Cauliflower Cheese and Red Pepper

Ingredients

 

 

1 medium cauliflower

1 red pepper

200ml crème fraiche

1 teaspoon wholegrain mustard

60g grated mature cheddar cheese 

  • Preheat the grill to high. 

  • Cut the red pepper lengthways into quarters and place on a baking tray, skin side up. 

  • Grill until the skin is blackened, then immediately place the peppers into a small plastic bag.

  • Leave to cool, then peel off the skin and slice up the flesh.

  • Divide the cauliflower into medium florets.

  • Boil in plenty of water for about 5-8 minutes or until tender.

  • Drain well and place in a shallow ovenproof dish.

  • Mix together the crème fraiche, mustard, the pepper slices and most of the cheese, reserving about 2 tablespoon of the cheese.

  • Spread the crème fraiche mixture over the cauliflower and then sprinkle with the rest of the cheese.

  • Grill under a medium grill until the top is golden brown.

  • Serve with crusty bread or try with garlic bread.

 

Serves 2

 

*Hint: using crème fraiche instead is a healthier alternative to cream or a white sauce.  It is also lower in phosphate and potassium than the normal version.
