Add water, chicken broth, cream and cauliflower to the onions. Carefully put the leaves into the pan as well. Add curry, this will enhance the cauliflower taste and give you that extra punch in your soup. 🙂 Bring to boil and let it boil for approx 15-20 mins until the cauliflower is nice and tender.

While you are waiting, heat butter in a roasting pan and roast the bacon until nice and crisp. A tip to get really crispy bacon is to let the bacon rest on a piece of paper after it’s roasted. This will drain excess fat and make it really crunchy. Don’t spill the fat in the roasting pan either, you will need it.

When your cauliflower is tender, grab a few of the bouquets and put them aside. Remove the leaves from the pan and use a blender to make the soup smooth. Use the fat from the roasting pan and black pepper to max out the flavors in the soup.
