1 head cauliflower
10 tablespoons butter
3/4-1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup water

6 -8 tablespoons tomato chili sauce (we use Maggi Brand Tomato Chilli Sauce, and we use a LOT)
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste

1 Break cauliflower up into bite sized pieces.
2 Bring water to a boil and drop cauliflower in just briefly to get it to cook about 1/2 way. just til slightly cooked but not soft.
3 Remove from heat and drain.
4 Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and add black pepper to it and sizzle just a few seconds.
5 Add water and stir a bit.
6 Add shredded cheese, and stir constantly, cooking over medium heat until it melts into the butter sauce; it should thicken a bit.
7 At this point, add the drained cauliflower and toss to cover with butter sauce.
8 Add the tomato chilli sauce, and fold into the cauliflower until all is combined.
9 Allow it to cooked until cauliflower is tender and sauce really starts to coat the cauliflower.
10 To serve, ladle some sauce onto a plate, plate some cauliflower, sprinkle salt and black pepper to taste, and shred some sharp cheddar over the top.
11 Serve!
12 We like to enjoy this with slices of bread to soak up the heavenly sauce!
