Ingredients
- 1 tbs of olive oil
- 1 large brown onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
- 500g of potatoes, peeled & chopped
- 1 litre of chicken liquid stock
- 1/2 cup of pure cream
Method
Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat and then add the onion and garlic. Cook the mixture, stirring, for about 3 minutes until the onion has softened and the garlic becomes fragrant. Add the cauliflower and potato, and cook this, constantly stirring, for roughly 5 minutes.
Once the mixture has finished cooking, add the chicken stock and season it with pepper. Cover this and bring it to the boil before reducing the heat to medium-low. Simmer the mixture for 15 to 20 minutes or until the potato is nice and tender. Once done, set it aside for 5 minutes so that it can cool slightly.
Blend the mixture, in batches so you can get the mixture smooth and creamy. Return the mixture to the pan over low heat, adding the cream and cooking it for 2 minutes or until it's heated through. Serve it and enjoy!
