Method

Step 1
Simmer the cauliflower in boiling, salted water until just tender then leave to drain really well while you make the sauce.

Step 2
Melt the butter in a pan, stir in the flour and cook for a couple of minutes, stirring all the time. Gradually add the milk, stirring until you have a smooth sauce. Simmer for a few minutes, then stir in the mustard and cheese.

Step 3
Whizz the bread and sage together to make crumbs and stir in the parmesan.
