Cauliflower cheese

Cauliflower cheese is a traditional dish consisting of boiled cauliflower florets doused in a sauce made from flour, milk, butter, nutmeg, and mature cheeses such as cheddar. The whole concoction is then baked in the oven and can be served either as a vegetarian main meal or as a flavorful side dish, accompanying roast meat and potatoes.

It is believed that cauliflower cheese was first prepared in the 17th century, when the vegetable was first introduced to the United Kingdom. Today, the dish is also popular as a pre-made baby food.
