AuthorKiraJasmineCauliflower Cheese (with or without Broccoli!) is delicious on it's own or as part of a meal. Particularly nice with a Jacket Potato!
Put 600ml of water in the Foodi pot. Pop the crisper basket in.
Chop up a cauliflower and put this in the basket. You can also add broccoli if you wish.
Put the pressure lid on and set to 'SEAL'. Select 'Pressure' and set the temp to 'HIGH' and the time to 1 min.
While the pressure cooker is working, you can make the cheese sauce.
Do this by heating the flour, mustard powder (if desired) and milk (or milk alternative) in a pan on a high heat. When this begins to boil, turn to a low heat and simmer while continuously stirring for 1/2 mins - until it begins to thicken.
Then remove the pan from the heat and stir in the cheeses.
When the pressure cooker is finished, switch the Foodi off and move the cog to 'VENT'.
Once you can remove the lid, take the crisper basket out and put to one side. Tip the water out of the Foodi pot. Now tip the cauliflower into the Foodi pot.
Add the cheese sauce to the top of the cauliflower in the Foodi pot.
At this point you can add more cheese to the top, or breadcrumbs. Sometimes I like to add some fried up bacon lardons for extra luxury!!
Shut the Foodi and select 'Bake/Roast'. Set the temp to 190 and the time to 10 mins.
Once finished, serve alone or as part of a meal. 🙂
If the top isn't crispy enough for your liking, simply bake/roast for a little longer.

I’m going to try this. Looks delicious.
It looks delicious, but looks like it’s been cooked in the oven. I’m beginning to think I really don’t need the Ninja foodie.
The photo is just for illustration – the Ninja cooks it much much faster and more healthier than in the oven/pans
Would you be able to cook salmon at the same time !
You would have to get the timings right but yes theoretically you could
Made this today, looks absolutely delicious. (Ninja Foodi Max Pro Health Grill AG651UK).
Excellent! Glad you enjoyed it
This looks amazing
This looks amazing definitely trying this for the kids
I’ve made this twice in my ninja foodi and it is delicious. It is a favourite, so quick and tasty. I put my cooked cauliflower and broccoli in a sponge sandwich cake tin and then in ninja pot. I will make again next week.
