Fill a medium pot with water and a pinch of salt and bring to a boil.
Break the broccoli into small florets and cook them until tender in the boiling water.
Drain the broccoli well in a colander while you make the cheese sauce.
Preheat the oven to 190 degrees Celsius.
Heat 25 grams of butter in a small saucepan. Briefly fry 2 teaspoons of curry and add 25 grams of flour. Let this cook a little to remove the raw flour taste.
Gradually add 400 ml of milk while stirring with a whisk to prevent burning and lumps.
Let the sauce simmer for 2 minutes. Then add 125 grams of grated cheese and stir with a whisk until you have a smooth cheese sauce.
Season the sauce with pepper and salt.
Place the tender broccoli in a baking dish and pour the cheese sauce over it.
Top with a handful of grated cheese and almond slices. Bake the broccoli casserole until cooked and nicely golden brown for about 20 minutes. Enjoy!
