  • Method

    • 1 For the Panko Crumb, heat oil in a pan, add minced garlic and thyme, and cook until fragrant. Stir in breadcrumbs, toast until golden brown, and season with salt. Set aside.

    • 2 For the Caramelised Pear Purée, preheat oven to 180°C. Place peeled, diced pears in a dish, sprinkle with sugar, and roast for 20–25 minutes until soft and caramelised. Blend with lemon juice and sherry vinegar, then pass through a fine sieve.

    • 3 For the Black Garlic Emulsion, simmer black garlic cloves in water for 10 minutes to soften. Blend with soy sauce, sugar, and cider vinegar until smooth, gradually emulsifying with olive oil. Add xanthan gum and blend again briefly. Transfer to a squeeze bottle for plating.

    • 4 For the Dolcelatte Cream Sauce, sauté diced shallot in butter until soft. Deglaze with white wine and reduce by half. Add cream, thyme, and bay leaf, simmer, then stir in Dolcelatte until melted. Strain to remove solids and keep warm.

    • 5 For the Cauliflower steaks, slice cauliflower into two thick steaks. Brush with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast on a lined tray at 200°C for 15–20 minutes until golden and tender.

    • 6 For the Cauliflower Rarebit, make a roux by melting butter, stirring in flour, and cooking for 1–2 minutes. Gradually whisk in milk, cooking until thickened. Add mustard, Cheddar, and Dolcelatte, stirring until smooth.

    • 7 Spoon the mixture onto pre-roasted cauliflower steaks and grill or torch until bubbling and golden.

    • 8 Place the rarebit-topped cauliflower steak in the centre of the plate. Add a spoonful or quenelle of pear purée alongside. Dot the plate with black garlic emulsion. Sprinkle the panko crumb over the rarebit for texture. Drizzle the Dolcelatte cream sauce around the plate to finish.
