Method

  • step 1

    Put the cauliflower and onions in a large pan, then pour in enough milk to almost cover. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15-20 mins, or until the cauliflower is completely tender.

  • step 2

    Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cauliflower and onion to a blender with a ladleful of milk, and blitz until smoothly puréed. Add more milk if you like, mixing to soften to your preferred consistency. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made to this stage a day ahead. Keep chilled and reheat before serving.) Serve with a knob of butter melting on top.

think i will definitely use cream next time just for added depth but for a first time it was really tasty and went very well with the scallops, mushrooms and spinach recipe also from goodfood.
