How to Make Baked Cauliflower Mountain Fashion

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Prepare the cheese mixture: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup breadcrumbs, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup heavy cream, 2 large egg yolks, 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Mix well.
  3. Prepare the cauliflower: Cut 1 large head of cauliflower into florets.
  4. Blanch the cauliflower: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cauliflower florets and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until tender-crisp. Drain well.
  5. Assemble the bake: Lightly butter a shallow 9x13 inch baking dish. Arrange the cauliflower florets in the dish.
  6. Top with cheese mixture: Spoon the cheese mixture evenly over the cauliflower.
  7. Add melted butter: Drizzle 2 tablespoons of melted butter over the cheese mixture.
  8. Bake: Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is golden brown and bubbly.
