About the dish

How to make it

1. 1

   Fill the mould

   Put the cooked cauliflower in a greased mould, preferably a rather tall one.

   Egg mixture

   Whisk the eggs with pepper, a little salt and possibly a little grated nutmeg. Whisk in the boiling cream and pour over the cauliflower.

3. 3

   Bake in a water bath

   Lay greased paper over the mould. Cook in a water bath in the oven for ¾ to 1 hour.

4. 4

   Serve
