Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour 15 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 Head Cauliflower About 450g
  • 2 leeks About 450g
  • 450 g Potatoes
  • 1 Bunch Parsley
  • 2.5 Litre Water
  • 2 stock cubes
  • 4 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  • Preheat: Oven to 180°C (350°F).
  • Roast: Toss bite-sized cauliflower florets with 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 20 minutes, or until slightly charred.
  • Clean: Wash leeks, thinly slice, then submerge in cold water to remove grit.
  • Sauté: Heat remaining oil in stockpot, add leeks, salt, pepper, and cook until softened.
  • Add: Cubed potatoes (skin on) and cook for a few minutes.
  • Simmer: Prepare 2.5 litres vegetable stock, add to pot along with torn parsley (reserve some for garnish).
  • Combine: Once cauliflower is roasted, add it to the pot. Simmer for at least an hour, stirring occasionally.
  • Blend: Puree soup with an immersion blender until desired consistency is reached.
  • Season: Taste and adjust salt and pepper. Serve with crusty bread, parsley, olive oil, and optional vegan parmesan.

Notes

  • You can use homemade or store-bought vegetable broth.
  • Simmer the soup longer for deeper flavour, adding more water if needed.
  • If you don't have an immersion blender, use a regular blender in batches, being cautious with hot liquids.
