Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/3 head cauliflower
1/2 carrot
1 1/4 lbs broccoli
3 cups chicken broth
6 ounces yellow sweet onions
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 garlic cloves
1/8 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes (preferably chipotle)
1/2 cup heavy cream
6 1/2 ounces extra-sharp cheddar cheese
3 1/2 ounces gruyere
1/4 teaspoon salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

Put the carrot (peeled but not chopped) and the cauliflower (also one big hunk) into a large pot with 2 cups of chicken broth. Bring the broth to a boil then reduce to a low boil. Add the broccoli and steam until the broccoli is al dente.
Drain the broth into a liquid measuring cup. Add more chicken broth to increase the total volume to 3 cups. Remove the cauliflower and carrot (which should be well softened) and puree. Set aside.
Add butter to a skillet, and saute diced onion, pepper flakes and garlic over medium low until softened and slightly carmelized. Add cream. Cook over medium for four minutes.
Remove from heat. Stir in the reserved chicken broth. Return to heat over medium and bring to slow boil. Boil 1 minute then remove from heat. Stir in the vegetable puree. Slowly add the shredded cheese in small amounts, stirring to combine. Add salt and pepper to taste.
