Broccoli and Cauliflower Cheese | Serves 4 - 6 🍴INGREDIENTS🍴 250g / 9oz large bite sized pieces of Broccoli (approx 1x 12oz/350g whole head of broccoli) 400g / 14oz large bite sized pieces of Cauliflower (approx 1x 2lb/1kg whole head of cauliflower) 500ml / 2 cups Milk, at room temp 1.5 cups / 150g Cheddar, grated (save 1/3 for topping) 1 cup / 100g Gruyere, grated (see notes) 3 tbsp Flour 3 tbsp Butter 1 heaped tsp Dijon Mustard 1 clove of Garlic, finely diced 1/2 tsp Salt, plus more to taste 1/4 tsp Black Pepper, plus more to taste few pinches of Nutmeg 2 tbsp Olive Oil Fresh Chives, to garnish 🍴METHOD🍴 Add broccoli and cauliflower to a large baking tray and combine with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Roast at 200C/400F in the oven for 15-20mins, or until lightly charred and slightly softened, but still a bit firm (will cook properly when baked). Meanwhile, melt 3 tbsp butter into a suitably sized pan over medium heat and add garlic. Fry for a minute, then stir in 3 tbsp flour to form a paste. Gradually pour in 2cups/500ml milk, continually whisking to avoid lumps forming. Once the sauce has thickened, stir in gruyere and cheddar, then add mustard, nutmeg and salt & pepper to taste. Stir in roasted broccoli/cauliflower. Pour back into the baking dish, sprinkle over the rest of your cheddar (1/2cup/50g) and pop back in the oven at the same temp for 20mins or until golden and bubbly. Allow to rest for 5 or so mins to reform shape and cool down, then sprinkle with finely chopped chives and serve up!
