For a richer flavor, use a combination of sharp Cheddar and Gruyere cheese.
Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the cheese sauce for a little heat.
If you don't have ghee, you can substitute with butter.
To prevent the cauliflower from steaming instead of roasting, make sure the florets are arranged in a single layer on the baking sheet.
For extra flavor, try roasting the cauliflower with a few cloves of minced garlic.
