I found it at Easy Spanish . Coliflor Gratinada is a Spanish Cauliflower Gratin recipe, and is a local dish of Murcia. You may use a small can of anchovies in this dish if desired, it is an optional item. Ingredients:

2 hard-boiled eggs |
1/4 cup parsley, fresh flat-leaf, roughly chopped |
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated |
1 tablespoon butter (or margarine) |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 cup butter (or margarine) |
1/8 cup flour |
1 cup milk |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
