Cauliflower and Broccoli au Gratin
This is a great vegetarian dish with lots of flavour or it is equally a good side dish to give a bit more spunk to the traditional boiled cauliflower and broccoli.

- Cut the cauliflower and broccoli into florets. Place into a saucepan of salted boiling water. Boil for 10-15 minutes until the vegetables are cooked but still al dente. Drain well.
- Preheat oven to 220 degrees C. Grease a baking dish.
- Melt butter and add flour. Cook while stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes to a roux. Add hot milk and keep stirring until you have a thick sauce with no lumps. Stir in wine and bring to boil again.
- Stir in Parmesan cheese and eggs. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
- Mix the sauce with the drained cauliflower and broccoli then pour into a baking dish and smooth out.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes in preheated oven until the gratin is browned up nicely. Serve hot.

This was a little different to the normal sauce so I thought I would try it. Only had a kilo of broccoli but this was more than enough for the two of us for two days. I used cheddar as cheaper. Sauce was a bit thick for me so just added a little more liquid. Hubby said liked it 3 times during the meal. Easy to do & will use again. - 01 Apr 2012 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
A huge and tasty success. My OH is full of compliments this evening. As the previous reviewer I thought the sauce was a little thick so I added a touch more hot milk. - 10 Feb 2015 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
