STEP 1:

Cut the cauliflower into 6 equal slices or “steaks,” slicing from the top down through to the core. Place the cauliflower steaks in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with the olive oil, and then sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.

STEP 2:

Roast the cauliflower steaks for 15 minutes, then flip and roast for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, until fork-tender and browned on the edges.

STEP 3:

While the cauliflower is roasting, make the sauce: Place the heavy cream, cheddar cheese, garlic, Dijon mustard, hot sauce, salt, and pepper in a large saucepan over medium heat.

STEP 4:

Stir continuously until the cheese has melted and the ingredients are well incorporated, then reduce the heat to low and stir occasionally while the cauliflower finishes roasting.
