Method

Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Cut 6 x 2.5cm-thick steaks from the cauliflowers, cutting from the centre to keep the root intact (save trimmings and leaves for another recipe). Arrange in a roasting tin and brush with half the butter. Season, sprinkle with 1 tsp rosemary, then roast for 20 mins or until just tender.
Meanwhile, put the remaining butter in a large, lidded frying pan. Add the shallots, cover and cook over a low heat for 6-8 mins until soft. Add the garlic and most of the remaining rosemary and cook, uncovered, for 2 mins. Transfer to a bowl, allow to cool slightly, then add the breadcrumbs, pecorino, nuts, cranberries, egg and crème fraîche. Season and mix to combine.
Reduce the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Spoon the stuffing onto the cauliflower steaks, shaping into a loose mound. Top with the Brie and remaining rosemary, then bake for 15-20 mins until the cheese is melted. Serve with cranberry sauce.

Tip: Make up to the end of step 2 and chilli for 2-3 hrs.

Use it up: Roast the leftover cauliflower florets and leaves and stir into a risotto or a grain salad.
