Instructions
- Crisp Bacon: Place chopped bacon in your Instant Pot, then turn heat to medium (press "Sauté" button). Stir occasionally, then allow the bacon bits to crisp (~4 mins). Remove bacon bits from Instant Pot, then place them on a paper towel to absorb the excess fat.

- Pressure Cook Cauliflower Potato Soup: Add 2 bay leaves, cauliflower, and 2 red potatoes in Instant Pot. Pour the remaining chicken stock in Instant Pot. Close the lid and pressure cook at High Pressure for 3 minutes, then 10 minutes Natural Release. Open the lid carefully.Remove Bay Leaves (Optional): If you don't think your immersion hand blender is powerful enough to blend through the bay leaves, you can remove them at this step.
- Blend & Season: Blend cauliflower soup into desired consistency with an immersion hand blender. Add 1 cup (250 ml) of heavy cream. Taste the soup and season with 2 tbsp (30 ml) of fish sauce and kosher salt.
- Serve: Garnish with green onions, crispy bacon bits, and freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Enjoy immediately. I think you will love it ;)

Notes
- Thinner Consistency: If you like a thinner soup consistency, add hot homemade unsalted chicken stock to adjust the thickness of the soup.
- Smaller Cauliflower Florets: break the larger pieces into smaller florets, so it'll be easier to blend.
- Crispy Bacon: It's important to place the bacon in the cold pot before turning on the heat (see tips).
