Step by Step Method
Step 1
In a warm pan add a splash of olive oil and gently fry the shallots until softened down.
Step 2
Mornay Sauce - Heat the butter in a saucepan and add the garlic and stir in the flour and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until smooth.
Step 3
Pour in the white wine and continue stirring until smooth (I prefer to use a whisk) and then slowly pour in the milk, followed by the cream while continuing to stir or whisk and then add the mustard and parsley and continue stirring for 1 to 2 minutes.
Step 4
Trim the broccolini stalks (just lightly shave the end of the stalks) and place into a steamer for approximately 5 minutes.
Step 5
Place the broccolini into an ovenproof dish, pour the sauce over the stalks with a peeler, top with shaved parmesan and grill (broil) until the cheese has melted.
Step 6
Serve topped with the cooked shallots.
