Heat the olive oil in a heavy-bottomed pan. Cook the onion in the olive oil over medium low heat until transparent, about 5 minuets.
Add the cauliflower, salt to taste, and 1/2 cup water. Raise the heat to medium high, cover the pot tightly and stew the cauliflower, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes, or until tender.
Then add another 4 cups hot water, bring to a low simmer and cook an additional 20 minutes uncovered.
Working in batches, purée the soup in a blender until smooth and creamy. Reheat the soup and gradually stir in the cheese until melted.
Serve hot, drizzled with garlic infused olive oil and freshly ground black pepper.
