CHEESY MUSTARD ROAST CAULIFLOWER

For me, Cheesy Mustard Roast Cauliflower is the best way to eat this veg. Not only does this taste fabulous but it’s also comfort food and looks like a bit of a centerpiece when placed on a table and served family style. A whole cauliflower bathed in a creamy, cheesy, mustard sauce and baked until burnished then cut into wedges to serve as a side dish or as a main with some crusty bread and a simple garden salad. So perfect for vegetarians.

A bit more special that the standard cauliflower casserole bathed in cheese – also both comforting and really good but I think my Cheesy Mustard Roast Cauliflower is certainly more of a showstopper. And I make no apologies for my seemingly overly confident statement. I’m stating a fact. At the risk of sounding bossy, don’t want to take my word for it, make it and see for yourself – you must! Toodles, Lovoni xo

CHEESY MUSTARD ROAST CAULIFLOWER

This for me is the most enjoyable way to eat cauliflower. It looks like a bit of a centerpiece when placed on a table and served family style. A whole cauliflower bathed in a creamy, cheesy, mustard sauce and baked until a light bronze. Cut into wedges and serve. This can be served as a side dish or as a main with some crusty bread and a simple garden salad.
Servings: 8
Calories: 219kcal
Author: Lovoni

Ingredients

US Customary – Metric
  • 1 medium-large head of cauliflower
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Swiss cheese
  • 1 cup finely grated Asiago cheese
  • 2 tbsp prepared yellow mustard
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • Pinch of sea salt and freshly ground pepper
  • Crispy fried onions such as French’s and fresh chopped chives, for serving, optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F (225°C). Have a cast iron pan, dish or a baking dish ready to roast the cauliflower in. Trim the bottom of the cauliflower so it will sit flat in a pan. You can trim the excess green outer leaves but I leave some on because I think it helps to keep the cauliflower together.
  • Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add a good pinch of salt and carefully add the cauliflower, stem side down into the water. Cook, covered for 8 minutes until the cauliflower is tender but still holding its shape. Drain well. Place into the pan or baking dish.
  • In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, all three cheeses, mustard, garlic powder, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Slather the mixture evenly all over the cauliflower. Roast, uncovered for 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown.
  • Sprinkle with fried onions and chives (bacon would also be good). And serve immediately. Serves 8 as a side and 4 to 6 as a main.

Such pretty little quail’s eggs. I’m working a Such pretty little quail’s eggs. I’m working at home all week testing recipes for a cookbook (sadly not another one of mine just yet) & one of the recipes requires quail eggs. I think I’d rather admire them than cook them but needs, must…

Heading back to My homeland today for mum’s fune Heading back to My homeland today for mum’s funeral. Sadly mum passed away on Wednesday & the world suddenly became less joyful, less stylish & definitely less clean & tidy. Gardens are now less pretty & food not as tasty for mum was both a fabulous cook & had the most beautiful garden. Most of you who might take the time to read this never had the honour of meeting my mum but if you had met her, she would be your friend & confidant for life. She played both mum & dad to my sis & I after our father left but we never seemed to want for anything. She was a shining star who always encouraged me to follow my dreams, even when it meant me moving halfway around the world. That just made us closer. She will be missed by those who love her ♥️
Here are some random pics: the first is mum & I in a tiny church in Drummheller, Alberta, Canada. There is one of mum in her bikini drinking a scotch at Palm Beach in Sydney (snarky me on the left in that pic). The last one is mum as a bridesmaid holding my sister. There’s one with my niece when she was little. I love the one where mum has decorated herself in daisy chains. Good memories.

Lemon Coconut Syrup Loaf - cold, snowy days calls Lemon Coconut Syrup Loaf - cold, snowy days calls for some cake. I have a nostalgic fondness for any sort of loaf cake. There’s something wholesome and reassuring about a cake cooked in a loaf pan. Not at all showy, a slice invokes, at times, a much-needed sense of security. It reminds me of mum and my nan, of times past back in my home in Sydney. I don’t recall if either mum or nan every made a Coconut Citrus Syrup Loaf but I know they both would of loved this recipe with its citrus tartness and the wonderfully sticky bottom from the syrup. Lovely just served on its own, it’s particularly good served with a dollop of clotted cream.
