Step by step recipe

1	Grate the 3 cheeses or cut into small dice if soft.
2	Prepare the cauliflower and separate the florets.
3	Slice the florets fairly thinly. This is very quick to do if you have a mandolin.
4	Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil. Plunge the cauliflower into the pan and cook for 2 or 3 minutes, until just tender.
5	Drain and leave to wait on a tea-towel to remove as much water as possible.
6	Cut 2 slices cured ham into strips.
7	Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large frying pan or saucepan, then add the ham. Fry for a few minutes until lightly browned.
8	Prepare 1 shallot and chop finely.
9	Add the chopped shallot to the pan and cook for 1 minute.
10	Add the cauliflower and 50 ml cream. Heat through while stirring well.
11	Add the cheese, stir again, cover and leave to melt for 5 minutes. Check seasoning

Remarks

For the cheeses, in the photos I was using Parmesan, Comté and Cheddar, but you can use whatever cheese you prefer.
You can also use a softer cheese, but this is better cut into small dice rather than grated.
