• Coarsely chop them when washed.
• In a medium soup pot, melt butter and add flour on low flame.
• Using a wooden spoon, stir and cook 1 to 2 minutes.
• Add broth, leeks, and cauliflower and bring to a boil.
• Cover and simmer on low for about 20 minutes, until cauliflower is soft.
• Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth adjusting the salt and pepper to taste.
• Serve immediately.

LEEKS, CAULIFLOWER, & SAUSAGE SOUP

Steps:

• 1. Heat the olive oil & butter in large pot over med, high heat. Saute the leeks, carrots, celery, & minced garlic about 10 minutes, but do not allow to brown or burn, as the garlic will be bitter.
• 2. Brown sausages in oil . Set aside.
• 3. Stir vegetable broth in leek mixture & bring to boil.
• 4. Reduce heat, cover & simmer for about 45 minutes.
• 5. Remove from heat & blend the soup with an immersion blender, or hand mixer, if desired.
• 6. Add the cut cauliflower & sausages. Season with garlic season & pepper.
• 7. Mix in heavy cream & stir in until smooth. Cover with lid & let set about 20 minutes or so. This will cook the cauliflower so it is still in tact & not mushy.
• 8. Serve with toasted garlic french bread.
