Step 1
1. Peel the onion. Grate the cheese. Chop the rosemary and basil. Preheat the oven to 175 degrees. Break the cauliflower into medium florets. Place in a saucepan with a teaspoon of salt, cover with water and simmer over low heat for 15–20 minutes, until the cauliflower becomes soft. Drain the water and transfer the cauliflower to a colander. Let it sit for several minutes to allow the excess water to drain and the cauliflower to cool down.
