This week: Macaroni cheese with cauliflower

THIS recipe makes four servings and in each you get one of your five-a-day.

Method: Boil 250g macaroni for about two-thirds of the suggested time, so it still has plenty of bite. Then mix 30g melted butter with 30g plain flour in a pan over a low heat and slowly add 500ml milk, then 150g Cheddar.

Meanwhile, boil 320g finely chopped cauliflower florets until tender and puree with 100ml milk or single cream.

Stir the pasta and cauliflower into the sauce, transfer to an oven dish and top with 50g Parmesan. Bake in a medium oven for 30 minutes. For the final five minutes, turn on the grill to brown the top.
