I've heard you can make a low fat/fat free version (except for the cheese of course). Anyone know about this?

Maman, I have this copied from a post Hot Chick made a week or so ago - not tried it myself

You heat the skimmed milk to just boiling, then mix some corn flour and water to make a runny mix, then add the paste a little at a time whisk into the hot milk til it's the thickness you want.

One virtually fat free White sauce!

I always use long life skimmed, it's a lot less watery than non long life, or use semi-skimmed that'll work just fine too :-)

You could use arrow root powder in the same way ...

I reduce the fat content a little by using some of the cauliflower cooking water and semiskimmed milk. Hope my husband dosn't read this but he needs a bit of help with his diet and he hasn't complained yet!

As above and use a very strongly-flavoured cheese so you need less!!

In my opinion a cheese sauce is always improved by adding half a teaspoon of English mustard. Note, don't boil the sauce after adding the cheese as this can make the cheese go all stringy.

Hmmm the thread above reminds me of my dad's Welsh rarebit, melted cheese on toast with mustard in it.... hmmmmm hungry now.

Chop and steam the cauli until soft. Make up the sauce, pour over the cauli. Sprinkle with grated chees and bake or grill until the cheese bubbles.

Thanks for the quick response.

However, I ain't got no steamer. Would I be able to use a collander over a saucepan with a lid over the cauliflower? Or could I just boil the cauliflower but make sure it is drained really well
