Cooking Lab - Baked Cauliflower Mac n Cheese with Truffle

I love cauliflower! But it's Picky P's absolute hate.

When I went to Sail at Lavender Bay, I absolutely loved their side dish over the mains. Today I am going to concot up a diet-light mac-n-cheese version to sneak in some cauliflower for Picky P. 

(c) GMV - Got My Vote! （≧∇≦）

I am so excited about this gourmet yet skinny version of mac-n-cheese. It's got a whole cauliflower and ample truffle oil! 

It's my new favourite comfort food for Spring! Who can exercise self-control over this creamy cheesy yummy pasta dish? 

After this, I can't go back to the ordinary Mac-n-cheese. Even Picky P overlooked the cauliflower. 

Ingredients:

-2 cups macaroni 

-3 cups cauliflower florets 

-1 cup white cream lasagne sauce

-6 slices of vintage cheddar cheese

-50g grated parmesan cheese

-30ml black truffle oil 

-20g fresh parsley leaves

-Salt & pepper to taste

Methods:

1. Preheat oven to 180C.

2. Cook cauliflower floret in a large pot of boiling water for 5 minutes or until tender. Drain well. 

3.Cook the pasta in the cauliflower broth until al-dente. Drain and remove.

4. Drizzle some truffle oil on the macaroni to prevent sticking.

5. Stir the lasagne white sauce with the pasta and the cauliflower. 

6. Spread macaroni & cauliflower mixture into a baking dish. 

7. Add 3 slices of cheese on top. 

8. Place into the oven and bake until cheese melted and turned bubbly.

9. Within the last 3 minutes, add a handful of leg ham on top. 

 

10. Served immediately. 

11.Garnish with fresh parsley and parmesan cheese.
