Here’s a classic favorite at our family dinners: broccoli gratin with Roquefort. It’s always a hit!

This gratin pairs perfectly with fish or grilled meat, but it can also serve as a main course—just be sure to be generous with the Roquefort and béchamel sauce!

For the gratin
4 broccoli
100 g of Roquefort
50 g of grated Gruyère cheese

For the béchamel sauce
1/2 l of milk
25 g of butter
2 tbsp of flour
150 g of crème fraîche
nutmeg
salt and pepper

1
Remove the tough stems and florets from the broccoli, then steam them for about 15 minutes (10 minutes in a pressure cooker); they should be tender and no longer crunchy.
2
Make a béchamel sauce (see the recipe) using butter and flour, first mixed with milk, then, once it has thickened considerably, thinned with cream. Season the béchamel with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
3
Add the Roquefort, cut into small cubes, and let it melt into the béchamel over low heat, stirring occasionally.
4
Preheat your oven to 180°C. Arrange the broccoli in a baking dish, cover with the béchamel sauce, pressing it into the broccoli with a fork, then sprinkle with grated Gruyère cheese.
5
Place in the oven and bake for half an hour so the ingredients have time to blend together and give this gratin its full flavor!
