Creamy, comforting and secretly full of vegetables.
Watch the videoThe best meals often come from "there's nothing in the fridge".
This cauliflower potage, our "white soup", is one of my favourites when I need a nourishing veggie side the whole family will eat. It feels fancy and takes almost no effort.
The recipe
Serves 4 · Metric, with cups in brackets- 1 small cauliflower, roughly chopped
- 1 onion
- 1 whole head of garlic, peeled
- 1 large potato, peeledor a few small ones
- 3 leeksoptional, or another onion
- 1 big spoonful of ghee
- Stock or bone brothenough to just reach the top of the veg
- Sea salt, to taste
Add everything to a pressure cooker. Pour in just enough stock or water to reach the top of the vegetables. Don't overfill or it will be watery.
Cook on high pressure for 5 minutes, then quick release. No pressure cooker? Simmer in a covered pot for about 25 minutes until everything is very soft.
Blend with a stick blender until silky smooth. Season with salt.
My Nourish3 Method is simple: protein, healthy fat and fibre whenever you eat. Pair it with a simple protein, like roast chicken, a piece of fish or a couple of eggs, and finish the bowl with a drizzle of olive oil and toasted seeds for healthy fat and extra fibre.
