Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Éplucher et couper

    Épluche les pommes de terre et coupe-les en rondelles fines (3-4 mm). Sépare le chou-fleur en petits bouquets et coupe les tiges en morceaux de taille similaire.

  2. Faire cuire les légumes

    Dans la casserole, fais bouillir 50 cl d'eau salée. Ajoute les pommes de terre et fais cuire 5 min. Ajoute le chou-fleur et prolonge la cuisson 5 min de plus. Égoutte et réserve.

  3. Préparer la béchamel

    Dans la poêle, fais fondre le beurre à feu moyen. Ajoute la farine et mélange 1 min pour former un roux. Verse le lait petit à petit en fouettant pour éviter les grumeaux. Laisse épaissir 3 min à feu doux. Sale et poivre.

    Tip · Pour éviter les grumeaux dans la béchamel, verse le lait très lentement tout en fouettant énergiquement.

  4. Monter le gratin

    Préchauffe le four à 200°C (thermostat 6-7). Dans un plat à gratin (ou un moule allant au four), alterne une couche de pommes de terre, une couche de chou-fleur et verse la béchamel. Répète l'opération. Parsème avec le fromage râpé restant.

  5. Cuire au four

    Enfourne le gratin pour 10 min, jusqu'à ce que le dessus soit bien gratiné et doré.

    Tip · Si tu n’as pas de four, utilise un grille-pain chaud en plaçant le plat sous l’élément chauffant pendant 8-10 min, en surveillant pour éviter de brûler.
