Time 1h15m

1 small cauliflower, leaves removed and broken into small florets
1 small head broccoli, broken into small florets

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't forget anything.
  • Choose Fresh Vegetables: For the best flavor and texture, use fresh cauliflower and broccoli. If you can't find fresh vegetables, you can also use frozen vegetables.
  • Steam the Vegetables: Steaming the vegetables helps to preserve their nutrients and flavor. You can steam the vegetables in a steamer basket over a pot of boiling water, or you can use a microwave steamer.
  • Make a Roux: A roux is a mixture of butter and flour that is used to thicken sauces. To make a roux, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Then, whisk in the flour until the mixture is smooth and bubbly. Cook the roux for 1-2 minutes, or until it is golden brown.
  • Add the Milk: Slowly whisk the milk into the roux until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook the sauce for 5-7 minutes, or until it has thickened.
  • Add the Vegetables: Once the sauce has thickened, add the steamed vegetables to the saucepan. Stir to combine.
  • Season to Taste: Season the sauce with salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste.
  • Serve Immediately: Serve the cauliflower and broccoli mornay immediately over cooked pasta, rice, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Cauliflower and broccoli mornay is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner.
