Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium, chopped yellow onion
- 2 cloves, minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional, for serving) fresh cilantro
Instructions
Remove the leaves and core from the cauliflower. Chop the cauliflower into florets.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened, about 4-5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and curry powder, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the cauliflower florets and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender.
Remove the pot from heat and let it cool slightly. Using an immersion blender or working in batches with a regular blender, purée the soup until smooth.
Stir in the coconut milk, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Allow the soup to cool to room temperature, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours.
Serve the soup cold, garnished with fresh cilantro if desired. Enjoy!
