Instructions

  1. Divide the cauliflower into florets and cook in salted boiling water until firm to the bite. Cut the spring onions into rings.
  2. Heat the oil in a pan and fry the minced meat in it over medium heat until crumbly. Salt, pepper and fry the spring onions briefly. Add tomato paste and broth, season with cayenne pepper and simmer for 2 - 3 minutes over low heat.
  3. Grease a refractory dish. Layer the minced meat and cauliflower alternately. Finish with cauliflower.
  4. Preheat the oven to 220 ° C top / bottom heat (convection 200 ° C, gas: level 4).
  5. Cut the cheese into wide strips and place them in a grid over the cauliflower. Bake the gratin in the hot oven for about 15 minutes until the cheese has melted.
  6. Tip: if you want to freeze the casserole, leave out the cheese. Put this on top before gratinating.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
