SFORMATO DI BROCCOLI E CALVOLFIORE (BAKED BROCCOLI AND CAULIFLOWER)

Steps:

• Set Global Sun Oven out to preheat. Coat an 11 x 8 x 2-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Cook broccoli and cauliflower in a large pot of boiling salted water until slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and reserve 2/3 cup of the cooking liquid. Cool. Rinse spinach and toss in a nonstick skillet over medium high heat until just wilted. Drain and cool. Squeeze spinach dry and finely chop. Melt butter in a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Whisk in flour until smooth. Slowly whisk in milk and reserved cooking liquid. Whisk constantly over medium heat until sauce thickens and boils, about 3 minutes. Stir in spinach and cheese. Using hands, coarsely crumble broccoli and cauliflower into a large bowl. Add spinach béchamel sauce; stir to blend. Season with salt and pepper. Spread mixture out into prepared baking pan. Bake in Sun Oven until bubbling and heated through, 30 to 45 minutes. Serve hot.

CAULIFLOWER SFORMATO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place a large pot of lightly salted water over high heat to bring to a boil. Cut the half head of cauliflower into quarters, removing the outer leaves and the tougher part of the stem. With a sharp knife, cut the florets into 1 inch pieces, and slice the center stalk thinly.
• Reserve a packed 3/4 cup of the florets, and add remaining florets and sliced stems to the boiling water. Boil until tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain well and transfer to a blender. Blend, adding 1/4 cup milk, or as needed, to make a very thick, smooth, puree. Pour into a large bowl, and set aside.
• In a small pot over medium-high heat, heat 1 cup of milk just until steaming. Season with salt to taste. Cover and turn off heat. In a second small pot over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of the butter, and whisk in flour. Cook until thickened, whisking constantly, about 3 minutes. Add hot milk and whisk constantly to make a thick béchamel, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Fold the béchamel into the cauliflower puree. Add eggs, 1/4 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano, a pinch of nutmeg, and salt to taste. In a small sauté pan over medium-high, heat remaining 1 tablespoon butter, and add 3/4 cup cauliflower florets. Sauté until tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and fold florets into béchamel mixture.
• Bring a kettle of water to a boil. Lightly coat the insides of six four-ounce ramekins with nonstick spray, and fill almost to the top with the flan mixture. Place in a baking dish and add boiling water until it reaches two-thirds up the sides of the ramekins. Cover tightly with a sheet of aluminum foil, and bake for 40 minutes. Uncover, and cook until the centers are firm yet still jiggle a little. Remove ramekins from the water and cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate overnight or up to three days.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bring a kettle of water to a boil. Meanwhile, allow ramekins to sit at room temperature until no longer chilled. Place in a baking dish and add boiling water until it reaches two-thirds up the sides of the ramekins. Cover tightly with foil, and bake until reheated, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare the fonduta sauce.
• In a small pot over low heat, combine the heavy cream and Gorgonzola dolce. Stir until melted and smooth.
• To serve, remove the sformato from the water bath. Run a knife around the inside of a ramekin, and place a small plate on top. Invert, and remove the ramekin. The sformato should unmold effortlessly. Repeat with remaining ramekins. Spoon fonduta sauce over each sformato, and sprinkle the top with a little black pepper and grated Parmigiano-Reggiano.

CRISPY BROCCOLI AND CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Position a rack in the top third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• On a rimmed baking sheet, toss together the broccoli, cauliflower, olive oil, salt and curry powder. Spread evenly on the tray and roast for 25 minutes, flipping the vegetables halfway through. Serve warm or at room temperature.

CREAMY CAULIFLOWER & BROCCOLI BAKE

Steps:

• Cover the cauliflower in cold water, add the stock cube, then bring up to the boil. Add the broccoli and cook for 1 min, then drain (reserving some of the stock) and allow to steam-dry for 1-2 mins. (The veg shouldn't be tender.)
• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Mix together the crème fraîche, mustard, wine (if using), nutmeg and some seasoning. Add the veg and mix well. Tip into an ovenproof dish, scatter with the breadcrumbs and bake for 30 mins until golden and crisp on the top.
