1
Clean and cut 1 medium-sized cauliflower (about 500 grams) into small florets. Wash them thoroughly and set aside.
2
In a large pot, bring 1 litre of water to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and the cauliflower florets. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the cauliflower is tender but not mushy. Drain the cauliflower and set aside.
3
In a separate pan, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of maida (all-purpose flour) and cook for 2 minutes, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
4
Gradually add 500 ml of milk to the pan, whisking continuously to create a smooth sauce. Cook for 5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.
5
Lower the heat and add 100 grams of grated cheese (preferably cheddar or processed cheese), 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper powder, and salt to taste. Stir until the cheese melts and the sauce is smooth.
6
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
7
In a baking dish, arrange the cooked cauliflower florets in a single layer. Pour the cheese sauce evenly over the cauliflower, ensuring all the florets are covered.
8
Sprinkle an additional 50 grams of grated cheese on top of the cauliflower and sauce.
9
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
10
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
