The nutritionist's note

375 kcal for 25.5 g of protein and 1.6 µg of B12: the soufflé delivers a very filling volume for few calories, because air replaces fat. Cauliflower adds 5 g of fibre and vitamin C.

Ingredients

1 serving

  • cauliflower250 g
  • eggs2 units · 120 g
  • grated Comté25 g
  • skimmed milk80 ml
  • cornstarch10 g
  • nutmeg1 g

Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 190 °C, lightly grease a ramekin with a little milk, then chill it.

  2. 2

    Steam the cauliflower (250 g) for 15 minutes, drain it thoroughly, then blend it into a fine purée.

  3. 3

    Whisk the cornstarch (10 g) into the cold skimmed milk (80 ml), bring to a simmer while whisking until thickened.

  4. 4

    Off the heat, stir in the cauliflower purée, egg yolks (2), grated Comté (25 g) and nutmeg (1 g).

  5. 5

    Whip the egg whites to firm peaks with a pinch of salt, then fold them in three additions with a spatula, lifting the mixture without knocking out the air.

  6. 6

    Fill the ramekin three-quarters full and bake for 22 minutes without ever opening the oven door.

  7. 7

    Serve immediately: a soufflé collapses within 3 minutes.
