Cook the onion in a pot with a little oil on low heat until it is clear and soft.
Roughly chop the broccoli and cauliflower and add to pot. Saute for a couple of minutes until broccoli is bright green in colour.
Add vegetable stock and replace lid on saucepan.
Simmer for 5-10 minutes until broccoli and cauliflower are soft and tender. Do NOT over-cook and have vegetables falling apart.
Blend together using blender or food processor, then blend again while slowly adding cream.
Mix cornflour with small amount of water (approximately 1 tablespoon) until liquid (not paste). Blend all mixture again and then return to pot.
Stir through parsley and simmer for 5-10 minutes until soup thickens. Be careful not to burn the soup to the bottom of the pot.
Serve with cracked pepper and fresh crusty bread.
