Ingredients

1 cup Bambini Bocconcini
2 cups Grated Parmesan
1 packet San Remo macaroni pasta
1 large cauliflower
100g butter
1 litre cream
1 cup milk
150g gorgonzola cheese
150g fontina cheese
salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup coarse breadcrumbs

Preparation

1 Pre-heat oven to 200c.
2 Cook pasta as per packet directions.
3 Take cauliflower and cut into small pieces, cutting off majority of stem. Place cauliflower and butter into a small saucepan. Pour cream over and enough milk to cover cauliflower. On a low heat, bring to the boil. Stir occasionally, and cook until cauliflower is soft and tender.
4 Place cauliflower and cream into a blender and blend until smooth and thick. Alternatively, you can use a stick blender if available.
5 Add salt and pepper to taste.
6 Pour cauliflower cream into a pan on low heat. Add gorgonzola, fontina, bocconcini (squished), parmesan and combine with cauliflower. Agitate the pan so the sauce reduces slowly and doesn’t burn.
7 Add pepper and cooked pasta to sauce and mix together. Pour this mixture evenly into a baking dish. Scatter breadcrumbs across the top.
8 Bake in the oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
