• Add salt, pepper and milk. Let boil lightly for a few more minutes. Put half in a blender, blending until smooth. Add back to pot.

BROCCOLI CAULIFLOWER SOUP RECIPE

Steps:

• Put the butter (or oil) in a large, deep pot set over medium heat. When the butter has melted, add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft, about 5 minutes.
• Add the broccoli, cauliflower, potato and stock.
• Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer gently until the vegetables are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. (You'll want to give the pot an occasional stir to prevent sticking.)
• Carefully puree the soup until smooth. If you're using a blender, be sure to let the mixture cool a bit and do it in batches, only filling the blender halfway, to prevent any exploding soup accidents. (It's also a good idea to remove the cap from the hole of the blender's lid and cover the hole with a dish towel while blending to allow the heat to escape and prevent splattering.)
• Give the pot a quick rinse and then add the soup back to the pot set over low to medium low heat.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Stir in the cream, if desired, and heat gently.

Place the lid on askew and cook them until the carrots have softened but are still holding their shape and the onion is lightly golden, about 10 minutes. (You'll want to give them a stir every so often so they don't begin to stick or burn.)

INCREDIBLE BAKED CAULIFLOWER AND BROCCOLI CANNELLONI

Steps:

• This is a twist on the classic Italian dish of orecchiette with broccoli, anchovies and garlic - I've added cauliflower and made it an oven-baked dish. The flavors are amazing.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil and drop in the chopped broccoli and cauliflower. Boil for 5 to 6 minutes, until cooked, then drain in a colander, reserving the cooking water.
• Heat a wide saucepan, pour in a couple of good glugs of olive oil and add the garlic. Fry for a few seconds, then add the thyme leaves, anchovies, anchovy oil and chiles and continue frying for a few seconds more before adding the cooked broccoli and cauliflower with around 4 tablespoons of the reserved cooking water. Stir everything together, put a lid on the pan leaving a little gap, and cook slowly for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring regularly - overcooking the vegetables not only intensies their flavor but gives you the texture that you need for this recipe. Remove the lid for the last 5 minutes to let the moisture evaporate, then use a potato masher to crush the vegetables. Take the saucepan off the heat, taste the vegetables and season carefully with salt and pepper. Spread the mixture on a baking sheet to cool. Meanwhile, get yourself another baking dish or roasting pan (the right size for fitting the cannelloni tubes snugly side by side - I test this by actually laying the tubes into the dish, then remove them and put to 1 side) and pour in the tomato sauce with a pinch of salt and a swig of red wine vinegar.
• Now, to make a really quick and easy white sauce, mix the creme fraiche with half the Parmesan, a sprinkling of salt and pepper and a little of the reserved cooking water to thin it down.
• Spoon your cooled broccoli and cauliflower mixture into a large sandwich bag and cut off the corner. Twist the top of the bag and squeeze it to pipe the filling into the cannelloni tubes. (If you prefer, use a teaspoon to push the mixture into the cannelloni or use a piping bag.) Fill the tubes up - don't be stingy! - and place them in a single layer on top of the sauce. Lay the basil leaves over the cannelloni and spoon your white sauce evenly over the top. Season with black pepper, sprinkle over the remaining Parmesan and tear over the mozzarella. Drizzle with extra-virgin olive oil and bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until golden and bubbling on top.
• Dress the arugula leaves with a squeeze of lemon juice and about 3 times as much extra- virgin olive oil. Serve the cannelloni with the arugula and some good crusty bread.

THE BEST CAULIFLOWER & BROCCOLI CHEESE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4.
• 2. Peel and finely slice the garlic and put it into a medium pan on a medium heat with the butter. 3. When the butter has melted, stir in the flour for a minute to make a paste, then gradually add the milk, whisking as you go, until lovely and smooth. 4. Add the broccoli (cut up first, if using fresh) and simmer for around 20 minutes, or until the broccoli is cooked through and starts to break down, then mash or blitz with a stick blender (adding an extra splash of milk to loosen, if using fresh broccoli). Grate in half the Cheddar and season to perfection. 5. Arrange the cauliflower in an appropriately sized baking dish (cut into florets first, if using fresh), pour over the broccoli white sauce and grate over the remaining Cheddar. 6. Blitz the bread into breadcrumbs in a food processor, then pulse in the thyme leaves and almonds. Toss with a lug of oil and a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, then scatter evenly over the cauliflower cheese. 7. Bake for 1 hour, or until golden and cooked through, then enjoy!

BROCCOLI AND CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• Roughly chop the onion, garlic, broccoli and cauliflower. Firstly add the onion, garlic and cooking oil to a large cooking pot (for a healthier option try sunflower fry spray).
• Once the onion and garlic has softened (this will only take a couple of minutes) add the chopped broccoli and cauliflower. Then add the stock, this should cover approx. half the ingredients. For more broth type soup add approx. another 100-200ml of water
• Add a pinch of salt and pepper and then bring the stock to a simmer and cover with lid. Once the ingredients have become soft (after approx. 20 mins) pour the ingredients into a blender or use a hand blender.
• Tip - For a creamer soup add cream or a couple of potatoes (bear in mind, potatoes will take longer to cook, so consider part boiling them before adding into the soup pot). This soup can also be frozen.
