Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 1 Onion - chopped
  • 1 medium Cauliflower - cut into florets
  • 5 cups Vegetable Broth
  • ½ cup Stilton Cheese - crumbled or grated
  • ¼ cup Heavy Cream (Double Cream) - optional
  • Sea Salt and Black Pepper

Optional Garnish

  • Stilton Cheese - crumbles

Instructions
 

  • Melt the butter over medium-low heat in a Dutch oven or large saucepan.
  • Add the chopped onion, season with sea salt and pepper and sauté on low heat until starting to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the cauliflower florets and vegetable broth then season again.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to simmer.
  • Cook for around 20 minutes or until then cauliflower is tender all the way through, including the stalks.
  • If you have one, use an immersion blender (stick blender) to blend the soup in the pot until smooth. Alternatively use a jug blender then transfer it back to the pot.
    You can blend until very smooth or keep it more chunky depending on your preference.
  • Put the soup back on the stove on a low heat. Stir through the heavy cream if using.
  • Stir in the crumbled Stilton cheese until it melts into the soup.
  • Taste and adjust the seasoning again, adding more salt and pepper if necessary.
  • Serve with a scattering of blue cheese crumbles.
