Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 leeks, including 2 inches of green, roots trimmed
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 celery rib, with extra leaves, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons finely minced garlic
2 teaspoons curry powder
2 teaspoons ground ginger
6 cups chicken or vegetable broth (more if necessary)
Juice of half a lemon
1 head cauliflower, cored and broken into florets
1 cup half-and-half
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Cut leeks in half lengthwise. Wash to remove dirt. Pat dry and thinly slice crosswise.
  • 2. Heat the oil with the butter in a heavy pot over low heat. Wilt the leeks and celery with leaves until softened, 10 minutes; add garlic during the last 5 minutes.
  • 3. Stir in the curry powder and ginger, and cook over very low heat to permeate the vegetables, 1 minute.
  • 4. Add the broth, lemon juice, and cauliflower florets. Raise the heat to high and bring to a boil; reduce the heat and simmer, partially covered, until the cauliflower is very tender, 15 minutes. Cool slightly.
  • 5. Purée in a food processor until very smooth, adding half-and-half through the feed tube. Add extra broth for desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper.

This soup was a bit too creamy for my taste. I would have preferred it if it had been a little thinner.

This soup was okay. It wasn't as flavorful as I had hoped. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some more spices.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover cauliflower. I had a head of cauliflower that was starting to go bad, so I decided to make this soup. It turned out great! The soup was creamy and flavorful, and it was the perfect meal for a cold winter ni
