I really fancy cauliflower cheese with my roast dinner, but I don't have any milk (we rarely use it even in tea, so I only get it in when I plan to make Yorkshires or pancakes, neither of which I was planning tonight)

I do almost always have double cream in the fridge though, might give it a go with that. It's only going to be a small portion for 1, I'll see how I feel about it when I start cooking!

Melt some cheese on top? Maybe?

 

[Orang Utan]

Melt some cheese on top? Maybe?

Add more cheese is never bad advice IMO

Yeah I was thinking along those lines, almost more like I would do a dauphinoise with cream, rather than making a roux based sauce with milk and cheese.

I've got little casserole dish things which are perfect for cooking an individual serving (it really will be just for me for 1 night, OH hates cauliflower so I take the opportunity to have it when I am cooking just for myself, and I want the rest of the cauli for making aloo gobi for me when we have curry night tomorrow!)

 

[Zorra]

Tortellini and salad.

This with garlic bread and creamed spinach. We were supposed to have burgers but they were haggle shelf ones which I froze and they smelt rank so I chucked them

 

[moose]

Shop-bought posh veggie lasagne, new potatoes with a lemon/garlic/mustard dressing, asparagus.
Campari spritz.

Bloody well is when you have a dairy intolerance.

I think since it came up as a topic due to me wondering whether I could make cauliflower cheese with cream, we can probably rule that out in this case

 

[Epona]

I think it's going to be difficult to make a roux for such a small quantity anyway but I think cream with some cheese melted in it and more cheese on top will work - if it needs thickening a bit, it will be easier to do with a little cornflour for such a small quantity of sauce.

We’re on holiday in Sussex so been having our main meals at lunchtime.
Pizza in Brighton on Friday, a really nice steak and chips in Peacehaven yesterday and a gorgeous lamb roast today near Tonbridge Wells today.
Dinners have been snack stuff including lots of baked goods from the Lewes farmers market.

 

[Epona]

Decided in the end that cauliflower cheese was just going to be a bit more effort than I fancied making, so had it steamed.

Next time I do a roast type meal for both myself and OH I will do it properly including buying some milk, and do a big dish with cauli at one end for me and broc at the other end for him and with beautiful beautiful proper cheese sauce all over it.

 

[sojourner]

Tsebhi birsen, white basmati, sour cream.

This again, cos brambling after work and need an easy tea.

Luxury special brownies for afters

 

[Elpenor]

Steak, broccoli, other veg
