Ingredients
1 large head of cauliflower1/2 vegetable stock cube1 tablespoon of butter2 eggs1/2 tsp of Dijon mustard1/2 cup heavy cream1/4 cups of sour cream1 tsp of salt1/2 tsp black pepper1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper (I'm using 3 chopped jalapenos)2 cup shredded cheese (us Cheddar for an authentic mac-n-cheese flavor or any variety you like), separated
Preheat you oven to 375 degrees F.
Wash and trim the cauliflower. Cut it into bite-sized pieces.
There are several ways to cook the cauliflower. The original recipes says to cook it in boiling water that has been seasoned with 1/2 vegetable bouillon and 1/2 tsp salt. Drain and add to a bowl. Add butter, stir to coat; set aside.
I prefer to do it in the microwave by placing the cauliflower in a covered, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave, on high, for 4-6 minutes. Remove the cover, pour off any excess liquid and lightly salt, to taste. Add butter, stir to coat; set aside.
In a separate bowl add eggs, mustard, heavy cream, sour cream, salt, pepper and cayenne. Whisk together until well combined. Pour mixture over the cauliflower. Add 1 1/2 cups of the cheese and stir well.
Pour mixture into a prepared 8 x 8-inch baking dish. Cover with remaining 1/2 cup of cheese.
Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand 5 minutes before serving.
