Cut the cauliflower into even-sized florets, leaving small ones whole and halving the larger ones (keep any small leaves intact).
This coronation cauliflower salad is well within that theme: it’s retro and familiar, but also seasonal and worthy.
1 large (or 2 small) little gem lettuce, washed.
It’s also the time of year when I most crave comfort and nostalgia: school-style traybakes with cream (or custard, if you must) and retro dishes such as glazed ham, egg and chips.
1 large cauliflower, trimmed, outer leaves removed.
