  1. Set the oven to 200°C (180°C fan) or Gas Mark 6.
  2. Cut the cauliflower into florets. Place them in an ovenproof dish and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Roast the cauliflower in the oven for about 20 minutes, until tender and lightly browned.
  4. While the cauliflower roasts, melt the butter in a saucepan over a medium hob. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until pale golden.
  5. Gradually pour in the milk, whisking continuously until smooth. Cook for a further 3-4 minutes, until the sauce thickens.
  6. Add the nutmeg, Dijon mustard and cheddar to the sauce. Stir until the cheese has melted and the sauce is combined. Adjust the seasoning with extra pepper if needed.
  7. Tip the roasted cauliflower into the cheese sauce and stir to coat every floret.
  8. Return the mixture to the ovenproof dish. Scatter the Parmesan over the top and bake for 10-15 minutes more, until the cheese is golden and bubbling.
