I am the soup maker. Come to the alter of Soup.
Half head of cauliflower
3 Tbs butter
3 Tbs flour
1 cup good cheddar shredded
One and a half cup chicken or turkey broth
2 cups whole milk ( don't even THINK about that shitty reduced fat crap- don't waste my time)
Half sweet onion minced fine
Salt and pepper
Chop the cauliflower into small pieces. Simmer with the chicken stock and onion in a covered pan until tender (about 10 minutes)
Remove to a bowl. Puree half the mixture in a blender.
In the original pan, melt the butter, add the flour and whisk (OK you're making a roux) 3 min. Add the milk whisk and bring to a boil- reduce heat to a simmer and cook 5 min.
Add the cauliflower, chunky and blended, - bring back to a simmer- add the cheese until melted-salt and pepper to taste, serve.
This makes about three servings- double or triple at will.

Ok soup maker: I made this for lunch today; we just happened to have 1/2 head of cauliflower waiting to be made into soup. Very tasty. I might try next time with curry but this recipe really doesn't need any tweaking. Very good.
I did, of course, ignore your no low fat milk warning. Whole milk is not in my vocabulary. I work hard at not developing the Washburn physique!
