Recipe: Cauli Soup

Recipe: Cauli Soup

This time of year I get my big saucepan out and start making nourishing warming soups. These one pan wonders really warm you up and give you all the vitamins you need.

This first soup is a cauliflower one

Ingredients

1 whole cauliflower

1 courgette

3 medium sized potatoes

1 small tin of sweetcorn

Boiled water

Salt, Pepper, Garlic Granules, Parsley

Now, first of all prep your veg. Cut the leaves of the cauliflower and chop them up and put them in the pan, cut the cauli up in to small bitesize pieces, and put in the pan. Then peel the courgette and cut in half lengthwise, then half again and then dice, and again put in to the pan. Now on to the potatoes, just wash under the tap, leave the skin on and dice then put in the pan.

To the pan add your seasoning and a few dessert spoons of gravy granules.

Boil a kettle of water, and pour about 2 pints into the pan.

Stir all together and then turn the heat on under the pan, bring to the boil and let boil for 15 mins, then turn down to a simmer for a further 15.

Turn the heat off, and keep the lid on, and leave to the following day. The residual heat in the pan will keep cooking the soup.

The following day check how the veg has done, if the veg is still a bit cruchie just being to the boil again. When the veg has lost its crunch, it's ready.

Serve with some nice wholemeal bread, no butter or spread needed.

You should have enough for a few days. For future bowls of soup, just warm up in the microwave.
