I have never thought of this combination of cauliflower soup with potato. Once my friend Sangeeta asked me to guess a picture of soup what it is. And it was cauliflower potato soup. I referred this recipe from vegetrian about site, but the recipe was vegan. I tried a simpler way and it turned out to be rich and tasty. I loved the colour of the soup mainly, it something that makes it rich in look. Very simple and easy to try for this winter. Wholesome too for dinner.

Cauliflower potato soup recipe

Recipe Cuisine: International  |  Recipe Category: Starter
Prep Time: 5 mins    |  Cook time: 20 mins    |  Serves: 2

Ingredients

Potato	1
Cauliflower	1 small flower head
Onion	1
Garlic	2 flakes
Butter	1 tblsp
Bay leaf	1
Salt and pepper	As needed

Method

1. I used my small pressure cooker for this, you can do this in a heavy bottomed soup pan too. Heat butter, add bay leaf, followed by garlic and onion. Fry in medium or low flame until onion turns transparent. Make sure not to change the colour.Add chopped potato, cauliflower and fry for 2 mins in medium or low flame with constant stirring to make sure not to change the colour of anything.
2. Add 2 cups water and pressure cook for 3 whistles.
3. Once done, discard the bay leaf, using a hand blender, grind it smoothly. Reheat if needed. Add pepper generously.

Notes

• If you dont have a hand blender, strain the pressure cooked potato cauliflower in a metal strainer, cool down, grind smoothly and add it to the strained water and heat again.
• In case you want to skip potato, add 1 tblsp of maida/ all purpose flour after u fry cauliflower, give it a fry for minute and then proceed.

Potato adds such a nice richness and thickness to the soup. Season with salt and pepper as needed.
