• 700 gram(s) (1½lb) cauliflower, cut into florets
• 4 tablespoon(s) sauce flour - we used Sainsbury's
• Sauce Flour, 57p for 500g
• 600 ml skimmed milk
• 1 pinch(es) freshly grated nutmeg
• Quarter teaspoon(s) cayenne pepper
• Half teaspoon(s) each Dijon, wholegrain and English mustard
• 150 gram(s) half-fat mature cheddar, grated
• 3 slice(s) reduced-fat ham, torn into bite-sized pieces
• 2 large tomatoes, sliced
• 2 tablespoon(s) dried breadcrumbs - you can buy these ready-made or dry them yourself in a low oven

Method

1. Preheat grill to medium. Bring a large pan of lightly salted water to the boil. Simmer the cauliflower florets for 4-5min until tender. Drain and leave to steam-dry in the colander for 2min.
2. Put sauce flour into a pan with the milk, nutmeg and cayenne pepper. Bring to the boil, whisking continuously until sauce thickens. Simmer for 3min. Stir in the three mustards and 100g (3½oz) cheese.
3. Arrange the florets, ham and tomatoes in a large ovenproof dish. Pour the sauce over. Mix together the remaining cheese with the breadcrumbs and sprinkle over. Grill for 3-4min until golden and bubbling.
