Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head Cauliflower
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium, diced Onion
- 3 cloves, minced Garlic
- 4 cups Vegetable stock
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- 2 teaspoons Curry powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons, chopped (optional) Fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Remove the leaves and stem from the cauliflower, then chop it into florets.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent.
Add the minced garlic, curry powder, and ground cumin. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
Add the cauliflower florets and pour in the vegetable stock. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer.
Cook the soup uncovered for 15-20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and easily pierced with a fork.
Using an immersion blender, puree the soup directly in the pot until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a countertop blender and blend until creamy, then return it to the pot.
Stir in the coconut milk, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Adjust seasoning to taste, if needed.
Simmer the soup for another 5 minutes over low heat to let the flavors meld.
Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh cilantro, if desired.
