Description
Beautiful creamy cauliflower soup topped with flavourful spicy chorizo sausage and delicious croûtons.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large cauliflower (cut into florets)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion
- 1 bigger potato
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 1,5 L (6 cups) vegetable (or chicken) stock
- 2 sprigs of fresh thyme
- 4 tbsp heavy cream
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- Bunch of fresh parsley
Croûtons
- 200g chorizo sausage
- 1/2 bread (at least a day old)
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Trim your cauliflower first. Cut the florets into pieces and slice the core thinly.
- Heat olive oil in a large pot and toss in the chopped onion. Cook for about 5 minutes until translucent. Add roughly chopped garlic and thyme.
- Add a peeled and quartered potato together with your cauliflower. Season with salt and pepper. Throw in your vegetable stock (or chicken stock). Bring it up to a boil and let it simmer for about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare your croûtons. Dice your bread, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Fry in a separate pan on low heat until crispy.
- Chop your sausage and fry it in the same pan. You can even do this together with your croûtons while they soak the amazing flavor from the sausage.
- Once the soup is done cooking, remove the pot from the heat and blend the soup using an immersion blender.
- Back on the heat, stir in the heavy cream, and season the soup to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with fried sausage, crispy croûtons, and fresh parsley. Enjoy!
