Ingredients (4 people)
- 40 g unsalted butter
- 1 kg cauliflower (1 small head)
- 1 litre veggie stock
- 100 g creme fraiche
- 100 g Roquefort blue cheese
- sea salt & freshly ground black pepper
To serve
- extra virgin olive oil
- chopped chives
- crusty French bread or walnut sourdough
Method
- Remove core from cauliflower and break into small florets. Melt the butter in a heavy-based saucepan over medium heat. When butter starts to foam add the cauliflower and saute 3-4 minutes — but not too long as you don’t want it to take on any colour.
- Add the stock and bring to the boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes until cauliflower is very tender. Carefully puree hot soup in until very smooth.
- Whisk in creme fraiche and divide into serving bowls. Crumble over Roquefort cheese and season with salt and pepper.
- Drizzle with a bit of olive oil and sprinkle with chives. Serve with crusty bread or walnut sourdough.
