This dish will make a vegetable lover out of anyone. Whenever I serve it, everyone just raves about it and asks for the recipe. Sometimes I'll substitute broccoli for all or half of the cauliflower, and it tastes just as good!
Ingredients:
6 tablespoons butter, cubed
1 to 2 garlic cloves, minced
4 ounces cooked ham, chopped
1 head cauliflower, broken into florets
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1-1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
pepper to taste
pinch cayenne pepper
1-1/2 cups (4 to 6 ounces) shredded swiss cheese
2 to 3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
Directions:
1. Melt butter in a large skillet. Saute garlic and ham for 2 minutes. Add cauliflower and cook just until crisp-tender. Combine flour and cream; stir into skillet and blend well. Add salt, pepper and cayenne pepper. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly; cook and stir 1 minute more.
2. Pour into a 2-qt. baking dish. Sprinkle with cheese. Place under a preheated broiler until lightly browned, about 2-4 minutes. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve immediately. Yield: 6-8 servings.
