Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Put the cauliflower on a large roasting tray and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Roast for 30 minutes.
In a large stainless steel pot set over medium high heat, add remaining olive oil, garlic, ginger, chili and leeks. Give a good stir and leave to cook for 8-10 minutes. Add stock and bay leaves along with roasted cauliflower. Cover, reduce heat to low and leave to simmer for abut 15 more minutes.
Remove from heat and blend in batches. Return to pot and bring to a gentle simmer for a minute. Remove from heat and serve hot topped with crumbled bacon and chopped parsley. Delicious!
