Ingredients
- 1 cauliflower
- 10oz/300g cream cheese
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 4oz/125g blue cheese
- 1oz/25g walnuts
- 2oz/50g cheddar
- salt
- freshly ground black pepper
- salad watercress
Instructions
- Bring 5cm/2in depth of water to the boil in a saucepan, add the cauliflower and cook for about 8 minutes, or until tender. Drain, and return the cauliflower to the pan.
- Mix the cream cheese and mustard with the cauliflower, then stir in the blue cheese. Season with a little salt if necessary and plenty of pepper.
- Pour the mixture into a shallow gratin dish. Scatter the walnuts on top, then cover with the cheddar (this helps to prevent the walnuts from burning). Place under a preheated hot grill for 10-15 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the inside hot and bubbling.
- Serve at once with a watercress salad.
