2 and 1/2 cups of skimmed milk'
2 and 1/2 cups of water

Method:
Chop cauliflower into large florets. Place in large saucepan with the milk and the water. Gently boil until cauliflower is cooked. Drain cauliflower and keep the liquid. Melt butter in a pan, stir in the flour and cook for about a minute stirring constantly. Take the pan off the heat and very gradually stir in the liquid. Return to the stove and gently bring back to the boil stirring constantly. If your mixture has turned lumpy don't panic. Just bamix (process) the liquid until it is smooth. Add the stock powder, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Chop up the cauliflower into smaller pieces and add back to the soup. Heat through gently as this soup may stick to the bottom of the pan.
