Cooking Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 200°C.
- Grease four individual moulds.
- In a saucepan over a medium to low heat, melt the butter and whisk in the flour until thick. Remove from the heat and add the milk, whisking until smooth and thick.
- Return to the stove and simmer for 1 to 2 minutes before removing from the heat again. Stir in the cheddar, parmesan and gruyère and egg yolks, one at a time, and mix well.
- Blend the blanched cauliflower until smooth, adding 2 tsp of cream to loosen the mixture if necessary.
- Pour into a large mixing bowl, add the cheese mixture and combine.
- Spoon in a quarter of the beaten egg whites and whisk to incorporate.
- Add the remaining egg whites and very lightly fold in until roughly combined.
- Pour into the greased bowls and bake on a tray for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden, puffy and set in the middle but still with a slight wobble.
- Allow to cool before running a blunt knife around the edges to loosen. Turn out onto an ovenproof serving platter.
- To make the gorgonzola sauce, bring the remaining cream to a simmer. Crumble in the Gorgonzola and stir to melt before pouring over the soufflés.
- Place the platter back into the oven to cook for a further 5 to 10 minutes, or until golden and bubbling.
- Serve topped with maple-roasted bacon, toast and chopped chives.
