Cauliflower Ham Egg Gratin

A gratin balancing tender cauliflower, leeks sautéed in butter, diced cooked ham and quartered boiled eggs. Finished with a nutty Emmental béchamel and crisped stale rustic bread slices brushed with olive oil. The blend of soft vegetables, savory ham, creamy sauce, and crunchy topping creates layered texture and rich flavor. Ideal for midday meals or casual dinner. Timings flexible; rely on visual doneness and texture from the vegetables and sauce consistency. Substitutions for cheese and bread suggested. A twist of smoked paprika in béchamel adds a subtle warmth and complexity.
