Spiced Cauliflower Soup
Ingredients
  • 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1 large yellow onion, diced
  • 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
  • 1 teaspoon curry powder
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 quart chicken stock
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to a high temperature of 450 degrees Fahrenheit (230 degrees Celsius).
2
Toss cauliflower florets with vegetable oil and a pinch of salt in a bowl; spread them evenly onto a baking sheet.
3
Roast the cauliflower in your preheated oven until it's nicely browned and tender, taking around 25 minutes to achieve this.
4
Melt butter in a saucepan over high heat. Sauté sliced onions until they're soft and fragrant, taking about 5 minutes to get them right. Stir minced garlic into the onions and continue cooking until it's fragrant, adding a pinch of curry powder, cayenne pepper, and ground turmeric to give it extra flavor. Cook the seasoned onion mixture for another 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
5
Mix the roasted cauliflower with the onion mixture. Pour chicken stock over the cauliflower mixture to add moisture and flavor. Place a lid on the saucepan and bring the stock to a boil, then quickly remove it and reduce heat to low. Let it simmer gently until the liquid has reduced slightly, taking around 10 minutes.
6
Blend the mixture in the saucepan using an immersion blender until it's mostly smooth. Stir heavy cream into the soup to add richness and flavor; season with salt and pepper to taste.
7
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped parsley for a fresh finish.
