• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut potato and cauliflower into bite-sized chunks. • Place veggies in a baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and season to taste with a generous pinch of salt and pepper. • Toss to coat, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes. TIP: If your baking dish is crowded, divide the veggies between two dishes.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice red onion. • Finely chop garlic. • Pick thyme leaves. • In a medium bowl, combine a generous drizzle of olive oil, thyme and panko breadcrumbs (see ingredients). Season with pepper.
• When the veggies have 10 minutes remaining, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with the butter and a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook bacon and onion, breaking up with a spoon, until golden, 4-6 minutes. • Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Remove pan from heat. Add Dijon mustard, vegetable stock (see ingredients), light cooking cream and Parmesan cheese. Stir to combine. Season to taste.
• To the baking dish with roasted veggies, pour over the creamy sauce. • Sprinkle evenly with the breadcrumb mixture. • Bake until golden, 5-10 minutes.
• While the gratin is baking, thinly slice pear into wedges. • In a second medium bowl, add a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste, then add pear and mixed salad leaves. Toss to coat.
• Divide bacon, potato, cauliflower and thyme gratin and pear salad between plates to serve. Enjoy!
