1-1/2 cup Vegetable Or Chicken Stock
1 pinch Saffron (about 1/2 Teaspoon)
1 head Cauliflower (about 5 Cups)
1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Plus More For Garnish
1 Leek, White And Green Part Only, Thinly Sliced

1
Heat stock in a saucepan. Turn off the heat. Add saffron threads and let steep for 30 minutes.
2
Chop cauliflower into small pieces. Add cauliflower to a food processor. Pulse to create a finely chopped cauliflower that resembles a grain, such as quinoa or rice.
3
Heat olive oil in a large saucepan on medium low heat. Saute leeks and garlic for a few minutes, until softened. Add cauliflower, salt and 1 cup of the saffron-vegetable broth. Cook for 15-20 minutes until cauliflower is softened. Add more vegetable broth as it is cooking if the pot starts to get dry.
4
Rinse and drain the frozen peas. Add peas and remaining broth to the cauliflower. Let cook 2 minutes until the peas are heated through.
5
Add parsley and a little fresh pepper. Stir. Taste to adjust salt. Serve in bowls topped with olive oil or Parmesan cheese.
