Cauliflower with Breadcrumbs Browned in Butter

First, remove the stalk and leaves from the cauliflower, rinse under running water and allow to drain.

1 Pour approx. 1 liter of water into a correspondingly large pot so that the head can comfortably go in and bring to the boil. Carefully add the cabbage and season with salt and a pinch of freshly grated nutmeg. Everything is cooked firm to the bite or just as everyone likes it, preferably if you have a steamer insert, let it cook.

Drain the water and if you like it you can catch it and use it for the sauce. Place the cauliflower on a suitable preheated plate and set aside. Heat the butter in a pan and sprinkle with the breadcrumbs, stir well with the whisk and let brown after gusto, stir again and again well with the whisk otherwise it burns, we like it with a light brownish color best.

Spread the browned breadcrumbs, stirred in butter, evenly over the cauliflower head and serve while warm.
