the mixture among 6 small serving glasses and leave in the fridge to set.

place the bacon on a lined baking tray and grill until golden and crisp, 10–15
minutes. Place the raw cauliflower in a food processor and process until it
resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Heat a dry pan over high heat, add the
cauliflower crumbs and toast until golden and crisp, about 5–7minutes. Keep a close
eye on them to avoid burning.

bacon in the food processer and blend until it resembles coarse breadcrumbs.
Add to the pan with the cauliflower, stir to combine and cook, 5 minutes.
Remove from the heat and stir in the chopped chives.

mousse from the fridge, Spoon some of the crumbs on top and garnish with
watercress and cauliflower. Serve with the toast on the side.
