From the Dairy Book of British Food. The smoothness of the cheese sauce contrasts well with the slight crispness of the cauliflower. Double Gloucester is a pale, mild cheese with a gentle, salty tang. Worcestershilre sauce and chutney give a lively depth of flavor to this dish . If you can't get Gloucestershire cheese, try a mild to medium fairly crumbly cheddar. Ingredients:
8 ounces cauliflower florets |
salt |
1 ounce whole meal flour |
1 ounce butter |
1/2 pint milk |
3 ounces double gloucester cheese, grated |

1 tablespoon tomato chutney |

2. Put the flour, butter and milk in a saucepan. Heat, whisking continuously, until the sauce thickens, boils, and is smooth. Simmer 2 - 3 minutes.
3. Remove the pan from the heat, add most of the cheeseand stir until melted. Mix in the Worcestershire sauce.
