Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 small head of cauliflower , cut into florets
½ chorizo ring (about 100g/4oz), roughly chopped
25g butter
3 tbsp plain flour
500ml milk
140g gruyère , grated
500g cod loin, chopped into large chunks
50g breadcrumbs
½ small pack parsley , finely chopped

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Bring a large pan of water to the boil and blanch the cauliflower for 3-4 mins until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • Heat a non-stick frying pan and cook the chorizo for a couple of mins to brown, then remove from the pan with a slotted spoon, leaving the oil behind. Melt the butter in the pan, then add the flour to make a roux. Pour in the milk gradually, whisking constantly, until smooth. Add the Gruyère, stir until melted, then season.
  • Put the cauliflower in a baking dish (or divide between individual dishes) with the chorizo and cod. Spoon over the cheese sauce and sprinkle with the breadcrumbs and parsley. Bake for 30-40 mins until the top is golden.
