Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups Cauliflower florets
- 2 cups Turnips, peeled and diced
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 medium Onion, diced
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 4 cups Chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, sliced (optional for garnish)
Instructions
In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add cauliflower florets and diced turnips to the pot, stirring to coat them in the butter and onion mixture.
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer until the vegetables are very tender, approximately 20 minutes.
Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can let the soup cool slightly and blend it in batches in a countertop blender.
Stir in the heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese until the cheese is fully melted and the soup is creamy.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley and sliced green onions if desired.
