Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 1 head cauliflower, broken into florets

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 3 tablespoons butter

  • 2 leeks, white part only, chopped

  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour

  • 1 quart chicken stock

  • ⅓ cup heavy whipping cream

  • 1 tablespoon cracked black pepper

  • 1 teaspoon dried chervil

  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Arrange cauliflower florets on a baking sheet. Stir together oil and garlic in a small bowl; pour over cauliflower and toss to coat.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until tender and lightly browned, about 30 minutes.

  4. Melt butter in a 4-quart stockpot over medium heat; cook and stir leeks and flour in melted butter until fragrant and well blended, 5 to 10 minutes. Add cauliflower, chicken stock, and cream; simmer until flavors have combined, 20 to 25 minutes.

  5. Stir pepper, chervil, and salt into soup; continue simmering until desired thickness is reached, 10 to 15 more minutes.
