Preparation:

1. Separate the cauliflower into florets and boil them in the milk with half the water, a pinch of salt and two tablespoons of Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain

2. Meanwhile, start preparing the courgette béchamel.

3. Put 4 tablespoons of Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Spain in a saucepan and gently fry the onion and leek over low heat, making sure they don’t burn, which would affect the color of the béchamel sauce.
