Instructions
  1. Cut the leek white part and discard dark green part. Slit it lengthwise and chop roughly. Dip this chopped leek in water tub and rest for 5-6 minutes. (As leek tends to have dirt inside the layers, its more important to wash it nicely.)
  2. Meanwhile wash and clean cauliflower and dip in water tub for 4-5 minutes.
  3. Now in a pressure cooker, take washed leek, cauliflower, garlic clove, salt and 3 cups of water (or vegetable stock). Pressure cook at high for 1 whistle and at low for 2 more whistles. Switch off the fame and let it cool down.
  4. Check the pressure cooker if cooled enough, open and transfer the mix in to a blender and blend to smooth puree.
  5. Now in the same pressure cooker, strain the puree, adjust the consistency with water.Add freshly crushed black pepper and let it boil. When a single boil comes, reduce the flame to low and cook for another 2-3 minutes after that switch off the flame. Cover and keep aside for 4-5 minutes.
  6. Pour in to serving bowls, garnish with some crushed black pepper and serve warm. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
  • Clean and wash leek very nicely as it has dirt inside the layers. 
  • Straining of puree is important to avoid any unwanted big piece.
  • Do not boil the puree too much, just 2-3 boils are enough.
  • You may adjust the quantity of garlic, 2-3 cloves are enough for very mild taste.
  • Jains may avoid garlic.
