Pour the oil into a large (4 or 5-quart) saucepan or Dutch oven. Place over medium low heat and add the leeks. Cover the pan, lower the heat and cook about 5 minutes, or until the leeks become meltingly tender without coloring.
Add the cauliflower to the pan along with the chili flakes, water and salt. Bring to a simmer, then partially cover and until cauliflower is soft, about 25 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool 10-15 minutes.
Stir in the cheese and puree the soup in a blender in 2 batches or with an immersion blender until it's very smooth.
Sprinkle with parsley and additional cheese before serving, and drizzle olive oil over each serving.
