I invented a game on Twitter a few months ago called Guess the Soup. It’s very easy to play. All you have to do is, um, guess the soup I’m making that day (or the soup someone else is making).
Today, Cassie started a new round of Guess the Soup. After I guessed incorrectly with combinations such as kidney bean and mango, and butter bean and blancmange, I finally won with cauliflower and butter bean. Realising I had some butter beans in the cupboard and a cauliflower in the fridge, I decided to copy Cassie and make it for my lunch too.
I’m not sure of Cassie’s exact recipe and I don’t know if she added chilli and cheese as I did but this is how I made it:
Cauliflower and butter bean soup
Ingredients
1 cauliflower
1 tin of butter beans, drained
1 red chilli
1000ml vegetable stock
100g cheese
chilli flakes
salt and pepper
Chop up the cauliflower
Put it in a pan with the butter beans, chilli and vegetable stock
Add salt and pepper and chilli flakes
Simmer for about 20 minutes
Add the cheese and blend

This sounds delicious, I am definitely going to try it. I might grate some nutmeg over the top, too!
