Caramelized Onion Cauliflower Cheese

November 20, 2009 by Chrissie



It’s been horrible weather here and as it’s my last day at home for a few days I thought I’d make a cauliflower cheese using up bits and pieces I had, so we had something filling and hot for tea. It’s not a great favourite of mine but my husband really loves it and the cats look forward to any leftover cheese sauce they can get their paws on…

I managed to pick up some cauliflower and broccoli going cheap at Tesco on Saturday so I bought two lots to freeze – I dug those out along with some different portions of cheese I’d frozen when they’d also been going cheap a few weeks before. The cheese was caramelized onion Cheddar and I mixed it through a home made white sauce to which I’d added black pepper and a pinch of mixed spice.The sauce and veg went into an ovenproof dish and then into a hot-ish oven for about 40 minutes. It came out looking all brown and bubbly like this:

Like I said, I’m not a fan but this was so lovely I ended up ending two huge portions…I’ll definitely be making it again.
