I make a lot of soup, but this one is my favourite at the minute. It is influenced by the rich cauliflower cheese dish, but this is a much lighter version - perfect for a starter where you want those classic flavours but don’t want to fill up too much prior to a main course. You can also serve this with crusty bread for the perfect stand alone lunch.
