Ingredients Needed:
- 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 pound Monterey Jack cheese, coarsely grated
- 2 cups grated Parmesan
- 6 ounces goat cheese, cut into small pieces
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
How To Make Cauliflower-Goat Cheese Gratin?
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C.
- Layer the ingredients: In a medium casserole dish, layer the cauliflower florets, heavy cream, and the 3 cheeses (Monterey Jack, Parmesan, and goat cheese).
- Season: Season with salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
- Roast: Place the dish in the preheated oven and roast for 20-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Rest: Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Recipe Tips:
- Use fresh cauliflower: Fresh cauliflower gives the best texture and flavor, so avoid pre-cut cauliflower for this dish.
- Don’t overcook the cauliflower: Roasting the cauliflower until it’s just tender will keep it from becoming mushy.
- Add extra cheese: For an even creamier and richer dish, sprinkle some extra Parmesan on top before baking.
- Broil for a crispy top: If you want a golden, crispy finish, broil the gratin for the last 2 minutes of cooking.
- Let it rest before serving: Allow the gratin to rest for 10 minutes after baking so the sauce thickens and the flavors set.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers?
- Refrigerate: Let the gratin cool to room temperature before storing it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheat: Reheat the gratin in a pan over low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until warm.
