Ingredients
 
 

  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 1 Onion - chopped
  • 2 medium Leeks - cleaned, white and green parts sliced
  • 1 clove Garlic - minced
  • 1 medium Cauliflower - cut into florets
  • 1 medium Potato - peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 6 cups Vegetable Broth
  • 2 Bay Leaves
  • Sea Salt and Black Pepper

Optional garnish

  • 1 tbsp Chives, finely cut
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil

Instructions
 

  • Heat the butter in a Dutch oven or large pan over a medium heat.
  • Add the chopped onion, season with sea salt and sauté on low heat until starting to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the sliced leeks and sauté for a further 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the minced garlic and add the cauliflower florets and potato chunks.
  • Add the vegetable broth and bay leaves. Season again.
  • Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer until the potatoes are tender, approximately 15-20 minutes.
  • Remove the bay leaves.
  • Use an immersion blender to blend the soup to a texture you like (you can have it smooth or more chunky).
    Alternatively, you can transfer a portion of the soup to a blender, blend, and then return it to the pot.
  • Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
  • Serve with a sprinkle of finely chopped chives and a drizzle of olive oil.
