Recipe Instructions:
Ingredients:
• 1 large head of cauliflower, chopped into florets
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
• 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
• 1 cup milk or cream
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley or chives, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Sauté Aromatics:
• In a large pot, heat the butter or olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 5 minutes.
2. Cook Cauliflower:
• Add the cauliflower florets to the pot. Stir well to combine with the aromatics.
• Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Simmer Soup:
• Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender.
4. Blend Soup:
• Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth.
5. Add Milk or Cream:
• Stir in the milk or cream to add creaminess to the soup. Heat through over low heat.
6. Season and Serve:
• Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste.
• Ladle the Cauliflower Soup into bowls. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives.
Note:
• You can adjust the consistency of the soup by adding more broth or milk/cream, depending on your preference.
• This Cauliflower Soup is perfect for a comforting meal and pairs well with crusty bread or a simple salad.
