Ingredients:

1/2 head cauliflower (about 250 g)

3 Lemon slices

1 tbsp. Butter

1 heaped tsp Flour

1 tbsp. lemon juice

1 tbsp slivered Almonds

2 tbsp Gratin cheese (grated)

Salt, pepper, nutmeg

Preparation:
➩ Divide the cauliflower into florets and wash

them.

➩ Cook the cauliflower with the lemon slices in

boiling salted water for 8-10 minutes, until the
cauliflower is al dente. Retain about 150 ml
of the cooking water before pouring the rest
away.

➩ Melt the butter in a saucepan and then brown

the flour, with constant stirring, for about 1 mi-
nute.
Under constant stirring pour in the cauliflower
water and let it cook for about 2 minutes.
Should the roux be too hard, gradually add
more water until a creamy consistency is achie-
ved. Flavour with lemon juice, nutmeg, salt and
pepper.

➩ Place the cauliflower in a baking dish (about

14 cm in diameter) and pour the sauce evenly
over it.

➩ Sprinkle the cheese and almond slivers over it.
➩ Place the baking dish on a baking tray 8.
➩ Bake the prepared dish at 200°C in a pre-

heated oven, with top and bottom heat, for
about 20 minutes on the bottom rail.

Puff pastry pouches (Bourekas) filled
with salmon

Ingredients:

1 pack Puff pastry sheets (about 8 pieces)

1 Pack Smoked salmon, sliced (about 200 g)

1 Lemon

1 Onion

1 Pack Cottage cheese (200 g)
fresh Dill
Salt and pepper
1 Egg yolk

Preparation:
➩ Take the puff pastry sheets apart and, if neces-

sary, allow them to thaw.

➩ Combine the Cottage cheese with salt, pepper

and the juice of one lemon.

➩ Finely dice the onion.
➩ Add half of the salmon and the onion to the

cottage cheese mixture and mix it all coarsely
with a hand blender.

➩ Cut the remaining salmon into thin strips.
➩ Add the salmon and the dill to the mass and

mix everything together.

➩ Place a tablespoon of the mixture on a puff

pastry sheet and fold it over.

➩ Coat the resulting pouch with egg yolk.
➩ Place the bourekas on a baking tray 8.

Leave sufficient space between the individual
pouches, because the puff pastry will expand.

200° C with convection for approx. 25-30 mi-
nutes. The puff pastry should gain a light brown
colour.

The given pastry volume is sufficient for several
baking trays
