Mix the flour, salt, and pepper until the mixture is even.

Slowly pour the milk while stirring continuously.

Heat the mixture until it boils, cook and stir for around 2 minutes or until it thickens.

Lower the temperature and mix in the grated cheddar cheese until it melts. If you want, you can add some spicy sauce.

Mix the cheese sauce with the cauliflower and leek mixture in the large pot.
