Featured on Yahoo! JAPAN, with over 100 people trying it out—thank you all! This soup combines cauliflower and potatoes for a perfect thickness that will make you smile. The origin of this recipe: I wanted to make my favorite potage with cauliflower, and by adding potatoes for thickness, it resulted in a gentle, rounded flavor. My 1-year-old daughter loves it and happily eats it!

Steps

1

Separate the cauliflower into small florets and wash them.
2

Thinly slice the onion to about 1/5 inch. Cut the potato into similar slices, rinse briefly in water, and drain.
3

In a pot over medium heat, warm the butter and olive oil. Add the cauliflower and onion, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent.
4

Add the water, bouillon cube, and bay leaf. Once it boils, reduce to low heat and simmer for about 10 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
5

Once cooled, blend the mixture in a blender or food processor. Return to the pot, add the milk, and warm it up again while stirring.
6

Taste and adjust with salt and pepper as desired. Serve in bowls, garnishing with chopped parsley or croutons if you like.
