30 minutes

Cauliflower soup with green peas is a delicate and aromatic dish of French cuisine, known for its lightness and refined taste. Cauliflower gives the soup a velvety texture, while green peas add a sweet note of freshness. Leeks and potatoes provide depth of flavor, and parsley adds a light herbal freshness. The finishing touch is a spoonful of sour cream that makes the taste softer and richer. This soup is perfect for both a light lunch and dinner; it can be served as a standalone dish or complemented with crispy baguettes. It is especially good on cool days when you crave something warming and nourishing yet easy on the stomach.
