Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

Boil a pan of salted water with bay leaves, fennel seeds, and thyme stalks.

Cook the cauliflower until soft, then drain and reserve 400ml of the cooking water.

Melt butter in a pan and stir in flour for two minutes to create a roux.

Gradually whisk the reserved water, cream, vinegar, and mustard into the roux until thickened.

Fry sausage meat with garlic, then stir in bread slices and thyme leaves.

Combine the cauliflower and sausage mixture in a baking dish, top with parmesan and sauce.

Bake for 45 minutes until golden and bubbling.
