Melt butter in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Add onions cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and translucent about 5 mins. Add cauliflower, stock, salt, some pepper and 2 cups water. Bring to boil, cover and reduce heat. Simmer until cauliflower is very tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in watercress.

Working in batches, puree soup in a blender, filling no more than halfway each time.

Return soup to saucepan, cover to keep warm. To serve, divide among 4 bowls, garnish with a sprig of watercress and season with pepper.
