Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
  • 1 kg / 2 lb (1 medium head) cauliflower, florets broken off and stalk roughly chopped
  • 8 oz / 250 g (1 large, 2 small) potatoes, peeled and roughly diced
  • 1 large onion, peeled and roughly chopped
  • 2 cups milk (any – dairy, non dairy, full fat or low fat)
  • 2 cups chicken broth / stock
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Thyme (highly recommended!)
  • Cream and/or olive oil, to drizzle

Method
 

  1. Place cauliflower, potatoes, onion, garlic, milk, and chicken broth in a large pot. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until cauliflower is very tender.
  2. Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until completely smooth. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. If the soup is too thick, add more milk, water, or broth until desired consistency is reached.
  4. If too thin, simmer gently to reduce and thicken, being careful not to oversalt.
  5. Ladle the creamy soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh thyme leaves and a drizzle of cream or olive oil, if desired.

Notes

– For an even richer flavor, use a good quality chicken or vegetable stock.
– Ensure the cauliflower is very tender before blending for the smoothest texture.
– This soup freezes beautifully! Let it cool completely, then store in airtight containers for up to 3 months.
