Ingredients

1 220g Cherry Bocconcini
50g butter
5 tblsp plain flour
600ml low-fat milk
1 medium cauliflower (cut into small florets)
1 large broccoli head (cut into small florets)
3/4 cup breadcrumbs
salt & pepper to taste

Preparation

1 Preheat the oven to 180 degrees.
2 Blanch cauliflower & broccoli. Drain.
3 To make the white sauce, melt the butter in a small saucepan and stir in the flour gradually. Cook, stirring continuously for 1 minute, until the mixture forms a smooth ‘roux’.
4 Remove the saucepan from the heat and gradually pour in the milk, whisking constantly.
5 Return the saucepan to the heat and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer the white sauce gently for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is smooth and thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
6 Arrange the cauliflower in an appropriately sized baking dish. Pour over the white sauce, and toss through a couple of times to spread evening. Top with Bocconcini and then breadcrumbs.
7 Bake for 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and golden.
