Chef's Note

You can replace the cream with béchamel, parmesan or Gruyere.

Ingredients
For 4 servings

- 250 g (9 oz.) cauliflower florets
- 250 g (9 oz.) celery hearts, finely chopped
- 250 g (9 oz.) cooked salsify (fresh, frozen or canned)
- 200 ml (3/4 cup) liquid cream, heavy or light
- 2 egg yolks
- 50 g (2 oz.) grated parmesan

- a pinch of salt
Method
  1. Preheat the oven to 200° C (400° F).
  2. Steam the fresh cauliflower and celery for 10 minutes, or cook in a pressure cooker for 8 minutes. If using frozen vegetables, bring a pot of salted water to a boil, add the vegetables and cook for 7 minutes after the water returns to a boil.
  3. Meanwhile, combine the cream, egg yolks, parmesan and nutmeg.
  4. Drain the cauliflower and cut the florets into small pieces. Cut the salsify and celery into short lengths. Combine the vegetables in the gratin dish.
  5. Pour the parmesan sauce on top and place in the oven for 10 minutes. Finish cooking under the broiler, gratinéing for about 3 minutes until the surface is nicely browned.
