Lunch: Steamed Cauliflower and Cheese Sauce

This cheesy cauliflower recipe is a great stand-in for a starchy side.

Ingredients

1 large head cauliflower, cut into florets
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons mascarpone cheese
kosher salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste

Instructions

Add the cauliflower to a large pot of salted boiling water and cook until tender, about 4-5 minutes.
Drain well, then add back to the pot and cook for 3 minutes, so the pieces are dry. Season the cauliflower with salt and pepper.
Melt butter in a medium sauté pan over medium heat. Sprinkle with flour and stir until pasty, about 1 minute.
Drizzle in the heavy cream while whisking and whisk until smooth. Stir while the sauce heats. Stir in the mascarpone. Cook for 1-2 more minutes, until hot and bubbly.
Drizzle the cheese sauce over the cauliflower and serve.
