A great side to make that's easy to bake! A crispy cheese topping with yummy broccoli and cauliflower pieces underneath in a creamy white sauce.

Ingredients

1 small head cauliflower (800 g), cut into large florets

2 heads broccoli (600 g), 
cut into large florets

½ cup stale breadcrumbs

¼ cup flaked almonds

¼ tsp ground nutmeg

Oregano sprigs, to garnish

White sauce

3 cups milk

3 dried bay leaves

1 tsp black peppercorns

75 g butter

¼ cup plain flour

1½ cups grated vintage cheddar (180 g)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Add cauliflower to a large saucepan of boiling water. Boil 
for 4 minutes. Remove using a slotted spoon. Drain well. Add broccoli to boiling water. Cook for 2 minutes. Drain. Set aside.
  2. To make white sauce, place milk, bay leaves and peppercorns in a saucepan over a medium heat. Bring to a simmer. Remove from heat. Strain into a heatproof jug. Discard solids.
  3. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Add flour. Cook, stirring, for 
1 minute. Remove from heat. Gradually whisk in milk until smooth. Return to a medium 
heat. Whisk until mixture boils and thickens. Add cheese. 
Whisk until melted. Season 
with salt and pepper.
  4. Arrange vegetables in an ovenproof dish (8-cup capacity). Pour over white sauce. Top evenly with combined crumbs and almonds. Sprinkle with nutmeg.
  5. Cook, uncovered, in a moderate (180C) oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until golden. Stand for 
5 minutes before serving.
  6. Garnish with oregano sprigs.
