Description

Directions

• Preheat oven to 400 F (200C).
• Cut off leaves and big part of the stem leaving the cauliflower as a whole.
• Wash cauliflower under running cold water and shake out well.
• Put stem side down in an oven proof dish and pour melted butter over it. Use your hands to grease every nook and cranny of the cauliflower.
• Turn the cauliflower stem side up, add crème fraîche and push into inside crannies, then top with cheese.
• Place in the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes or until tender. You can test by sticking in a knife all the way to the stem. Dont cut the cauliflower, just stick in the knife. If it runs in easily the cauliflower is ready. If it doesnt slide in, add another 10 minutes to the roasting time.
• Top with fresh thyme and cut into it like you would in a cake to serve pieces of it.
