Ingredients
  

For the Bake
  • 1 medium cauliflower a great low-carb vegetable that bakes to tender perfection
  • 240 ml double cream provides the rich, velvety texture that makes this dish irresistible
  • 150 g strong Cheddar cheese, grated adds bold flavor and that cheesy goodness you crave
  • ¼ tsp salt enhances all the flavors in your Cheesy Cauliflower Bake
  • ½ tsp black pepper introduces a warm spice, elevating the dish to new heights
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped adds a pop of color and a hint of freshness to finish

Equipment

  • Oven
  • steamer
  • Mixing bowl
  • Baking dish

Method
 

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures that your Cheesy Cauliflower Bake cooks evenly and reaches that golden, bubbly perfection everyone enjoys.
  2. Cut the cauliflower into florets and steam them until tender, about 8-10 minutes. You want them soft enough to absorb the creamy mixture but not mushy—aim for a bright white color!
  3. Mix together the double cream, grated strong Cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Whisk until combined and melty, creating that irresistible cheesy goodness.
  4. Combine the steamed cauliflower florets with the creamy mixture. Stir gently to coat the florets, ensuring every bite is filled with cheesy delight.
  5. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish. Spread it evenly and pop it in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until it’s golden brown and bubbly. The aroma will be heavenly!
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley just before serving. This adds a touch of color and a fresh flavor that beautifully complements the richness of the bake.
