Ingredients:

- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
Preparation:
1. Steam the Romanesco: Place the Romanesco florets in the steaming tray of the Olla GM. Add 1 cup of water to the bottom of the pot and steam the Romanesco on high pressure for 5 minutes. Once done, release the pressure and remove the florets from the pot. Set aside.
2. Prepare the Sauce: In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Stir well and let the sauce simmer for 5 minutes until it thickens slightly.
3. Combine the Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the steamed Romanesco with the creamy sauce. Add half of the grated Gruyere cheese and half of the grated Parmesan cheese. Mix everything together until the Romanesco is well coated with the sauce.
4. Layer the Gratin: Transfer the Romanesco mixture into a baking dish. Sprinkle the remaining Gruyere and Parmesan cheese on top. In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with melted butter and sprinkle this mixture over the cheese.
5. Cook in the Olla GM: Place the baking dish in the Olla GM. Close the lid and select the «Bake» function. Set the temperature to 180°C and the time to 20 minutes. Let the Romanesco gratin cook until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
6. Serve and Enjoy: Once the Romanesco gratin is done, remove it from the Olla GM and let it cool slightly before serving. This dish is best enjoyed hot, with a side of crusty bread or a simple green salad. The creamy sauce, gooey cheese, and tender Romanesco florets make this dish a true comfort food favorite for fall.
