This mashed potato and cauliflower gratin is a sophisticated twist on two classic side dishes. By blending creamy potatoes with a savoury cauliflower and garlic purée, you create a texture that is lighter than traditional mash but still incredibly comforting. The addition of nutty Fontina and sharp Parmigiano-Reggiano provides a rich, indulgent finish that pairs beautifully with the subtle sweetness of the roasted vegetables.
As a versatile vegetarian dish, this gratin works perfectly alongside a traditional Sunday roast or as a substantial main course when served with a crisp green salad. The golden, grilled cheese topping adds a delightful crunch, making it a crowd-pleasing addition to any family dinner table. It is an excellent way to elevate humble root vegetables into a dinner party-worthy accompaniment.

How to make Mashed Potato and Cauliflower Gratin
Volver al contenidoPut potatoes and 2 teaspoons salt in a large heavy saucepan and generously cover with cold water (about 2.4L ). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, and simmer, partially covered, until potatoes are tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
While potatoes are boiling, heat 180ml milk and 45ml butter in a small saucepan until butter is melted and milk is hot but not boiling. Keep warm off heat, covered.
Drain potatoes well in a sieve or colander and return to hot saucepan. Add milk mixture, Fontina, and pepper, and mash with a potato masher or fork to desired consistency. Season with salt and keep warm, covered.
Bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil, then add cauliflower and garlic and simmer until cauliflower is very tender, 13 to 15 minutes.
Drain cauliflower in a colander and pulse with remaining 120ml milk, 120ml Parmigiano-Reggiano, and 45ml butter in a food processor until it's a chunky purée.
Stir together mashed potatoes and cauliflower mixture in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a buttered 3-quart flameproof shallow baking dish (not glass).
Heat oven to 218°C with rack in middle. Melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter and gently brush over potato-cauliflower mixture, then sprinkle evenly with remaining 60 to 120ml Parmigiano-Reggiano (to taste). Bake until potato mixture bubbles around edges, about 20 minutes.
Turn on grill and grill 6 to 8 inches from heat until topping is browned in spots, 1 to 2 minutes.
