Ingredients

  • 1 medium cauliflower
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup white flour
  • 1/3 cup grated cheddar cheese (I like sharp)
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 6 heads calendula flowers
  • salt and pepper

Method

  • Break up the cauliflower into large florets.
  • Steam 10 to 15 minutes, until cooked but not too soft.
  • In a saucepan, melt butter.
  • Add flour until a roux is formed (soft paste).
  • Slowly add milk, whisking to keep smooth.
  • Turn down the heat to low and simmer for about 5-10 minutes to thicken sauce.
  • Stir in grated cheese, not allowing to boil.
  • Remove from heat, and add in the marigold petals.
  • Stir carefully.
  • Place the cauliflower into a serving dish and pour the sauce over the top.
  • Serves 4.
  • Enjoy!
