Cauliflower flan is an elegant dish of French cuisine that combines the lightness of a soufflé with the tenderness of vegetables. Its origin is linked to the traditions of French gastronomy, where fine textures and harmony of flavors are valued. In this recipe, cauliflower becomes soft after boiling and is then enriched with a creamy sauce made from sour cream, milk, and eggs. Baked with green onions and grated cheese, it turns into a delightful treat with a light creamy consistency and appetizing golden crust. Flan is perfect as a standalone dish or as an exquisite side for fish and meat. Its delicate flavor with subtle spicy notes makes it a wonderful choice for a cozy family dinner or festive table.
