Outlaw Cauliflower Cheese

Grated cheese
1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon of mustard/powder
Butter
plain flour
milk
cooked cauliflower
fresh breadcrumbs
cheese to top
Named after my mother-in-law who taught me how to make the best cauliflower cheese. I have always referred to my "in-laws" as outlaws and it is a term of affection. This is no different to any other cauliflower cheese really except the addition of mustard and nutmeg.....I sometimes add crispy pancetta pieces too......go with the flow. Melt the butter in the pan add the mustard or mustard powder and nutmeg. Add in the flour and milk and continue to make a white sauce. Slowly melt in the cheese until smooth. Add the cauliflower to an oven-proof dish, poor over the sauce and cover with breadcrumbs, top this with cheese of your choice and cook.
