I changed it a little. I squeezed out some of the liquid from the cauliflower. Then I made it according to the recipe. I baked it for 25 min. It was brown on top, but the bottom wasn't cooked. put it in for another 15 min. It didn't do anything to crisp it up. So have to eat it with a spoon. It tastes good. But I don't think I would make it again.

Mine turned out like a baked mashed potato. Creamy on the inside.
