Cauliflower and Tomato Crumble

Serves 4-6 Cook 30 min

Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower, broken into florets
  • 4 tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 25g butter
  • 100g plain flour
  • 50g rolled oats
  • 50g Cheddar, grated
  • 100g butter
  •   seasoning

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6. Cook the cauliflower in boiling, salted water or steam until almost tender. Pack tightly in a lightly buttered ovenproof dish.
  2. Cover with tomato slices, sprinkle over the thyme and dot with the butter.
  3. Make the crumble: mix together the flour, oats, cheese and seasoning in a bowl. Melt the butter and, using a palette knife, stir to make a crumbly mixture.
  4. Cool slightly, then scatter the crumble mixture evenly over the tomatoes. Bake for about 30 minutes until crisp and golden brown. Serve at once.

Notes

For a moister dish, add béchamel or tomato sauce before the topping.
