Method
- Make up the stuffing according to the pack instructions.
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Break the cauliflower into florets the size of walnuts and toss with the olive oil on a roasting tray. Roast for 20 mins until just golden and the edges are beginning to char.
- Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by melting the spread with the flour until combined and hot. Add the milk, whisking, to form a smooth sauce. Simmer for a few minutes to cook the flour, then remove from the heat and stir in the mustard and 100g of the cheese.
- Mix the cauliflower with the lentils in a baking dish about 20 x 30cm. Pour over the ‘cheese’ sauce. Use a fork to break up the stuffing into 1-2cm sized rubble. Spread over the top of the cauliflower along with the remaining 50g cheese. Place in the oven for 15 mins to brown the top.
- Serve topped with sliced sage, if you like.
