Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Cauliflower
- 3 medium Carrots
- 1 small Yellow onion
- 2 large Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 cups Vegetable broth
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Instructions
Chop the cauliflower into small florets. Peel and slice the carrots into thin rounds. Dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté for 3-4 minutes, until fragrant and softened.
Add the cauliflower florets and carrot rounds to the pot. Stir well to coat the vegetables in the olive oil and aromatics.
Season the vegetables with salt, black pepper, ground cumin, and paprika. Stir to combine the spices evenly.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, lower the heat to a simmer and let the vegetables cook for 20 minutes, or until the cauliflower and carrots are tender.
Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup to a countertop blender in batches and purée until smooth.
Stir in the coconut milk to add creaminess. Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if needed.
Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley. Enjoy with crusty bread or crackers for a complete meal.
