Ingredients
- 1 kg broccoli (approx. 3 heads), florets separated and stalk finely chopped
- 1 tbsp sunflower oil
- 200g pearl barley
- 60g unsalted butter
- 3½ echalion shallots, finely sliced
- 2 large garlic gloves, crushed
- 60g plain flour
- 1 litre semi-skimmed milk
- 1 heaped tbsp dijon mustard
- 225g extra-mature cheddar, grated
- 30g dried breadcrumbs
- 1 bag mixed salad leaves, to serve
Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Put the broccoli on baking trays, drizzle with oil and season with salt. Roast for 30 mins. Meanwhile, bring a pan of water to the boil, add the pearl barley and cook for 20 mins; drain and set aside.
Step 2
Melt the butter in a large pan and add the shallots. Cook for 8-10 mins, stirring often, until softened. Reduce the heat, stir in the garlic and cook for 2-3 mins. Stir in the flour and cook until the flour smells biscuity.
Step 3
Increase the heat and add a little milk, stirring; the mixture will stiffen. Gradually add the rest of the milk, stirring, to create a thick white sauce. Remove from the heat; stir in the mustard, 200g of the cheese and salt to taste.
Step 4
Add the broccoli and pearl barley into the sauce, stirring all the while, then tip into a shallow baking dish and smooth the top. Scatter with the breadcrumbs and remaining cheese. Bake for 30 mins, until deeply golden.
Step 5
Remove the gratin from the oven and let it stand for 5 mins before serving with salad.
