Today might have been a bad day to be drinking hot soup but it turned out pretty apt since we didn't have much of an appetite on a warm day. Always finding an excuse to chomp on some yummy and cheap baguette, was also a deciding factor in making the soup. Another plus point is the health benefits as cauliflower belongs to the superfood family of cruciferous vegetables. If you do not like bleu cheese, feel free to leave it out, roasted cauliflower soup is still pretty tasty on it's own.
Roasted Cauliflower Bleu Cheese Soup
- A head of cauliflower (maybe about 1.5 to 2 lbs)
- 1 onion
- 4 cloves of garlic
- chicken stock
- 2 tablespoons of bleu cheese (adjust to your taste)
Chop the cauliflower into small florets and let them flat on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle some salt and pepper. Roast at 380 degrees for about 30 mins
Slice the onions and mince the garlic. Sauté the onions and garlic till soft and fragrant. Add the roasted cauliflower and enough chicken stock to cover. Stir in about 2 tablespoons of bleu cheese. Bring soup to a boil. Add soup to blender in batches and blend till smooth. If you wish to make it slightly richer, add some cream to it.
I'm sure this is not as good as Soup Spoon's but good enough for now!
