Ingredients

600g cauliflower, leaves removed

1tbsp lemon juice

1tbsp Dijon mustard

1tsp rapeseed oil

50g Asda Grated Grana Padano cheese

1tsp fresh thyme leaves

75g Asda Mild Baby Leaf & Rocket salad, to serve

Method

1
Preheat the oven to 200C/Fan 180C/Gas 6.
2
Put the cauliflower top down on a chopping board and carefully cut out the centre stalk, leaving the head of the cauliflower whole.
3
Put into a large saucepan and carefully cover with boiling water from the kettle. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, then drain.
4
Stir together the lemon juice, Dijon mustard and oil. Put the cauliflower into a shallow roasting tin and brush over the mustard mixture.
5
Sprinkle over the cheese and season with black pepper, pressing down lightly to make the cheese stick.
6
Roast in the oven for 30-35 minutes, or until golden brown and tender when pierced.
7
Take the tin out of the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
8
Sprinkle with the thyme leaves and serve with the salad on the side.
