Curried Cauliflower Soup

Recipe courtesy www.cottercrunch.com (check them out!)

Ingredients:

  • 5-6 cups of cauliflower florets (about 3-4 cups when “riced’).

  • 2- 3 tbsp curry powder or curry seasoning

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1/2 tsp cumin

  • 1/2 tsp paprika

  • 1/4 tsp sea salt

  • 2-3 tbsp olive oil for roasting

  • 3/4 cup red onion chopped

  • 1 tsp minced garlic

  • 2 tsp olive oil or avocado oil

  • 8 kale leaves with stems removed and chopped

  • 2 cups chopped carrots

  • 4 cups broth (vegetable or chicken)

  • 1 cup almond milk, cashew or coconut milk

  • 1/2 tsp red pepper or chili flakes (to taste)

  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

  • Salt to taste after cooked

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400F.

  2. In a small bowl, toss cauliflower florets with curry powder, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, salt, and 3 tbsp oil.

  3. Spread the cauliflower florets on a baking dish or roasting pan. Place in oven and roast for 20 -22 minutes until tender but slightly under cooked.

  4. Remove and set aside.

  5. While the cauliflower is cooling, prep the rest of your veggies by chopping them up on a cutting board.

  6. Next place cauliflower florets in a food processor or blender and pulse a few times until the cauliflower is chopped or “riced.”

  7. Once all the cauliflower is riced and kale/veggies are chopped, prepare your cooking pot.

  8. Place onion, 2 tsp oil, and minced garlic in large stock pot. Sautee for 5 minutes until fragant.

  9. Next add in your broth, milk, veggies, cauliflower “rice,” and the red chili pepper and black pepper.

  10. Bring to a quick boil (make sure milk doesn't get too hot), then simmer for another 20 minutes or so until veggies are all cooked.

  11. Add dash of sea salt if desired once ready to serve.

  12. Garnish with herbs and nut/seeds.

Tips:

  • If you don’t have a food processor, just finely chop the cauliflower.

  • You can also buy pre-riced cauliflower and roast it.

  • Be sure not to over process the cauliflower when cooked.

  • You don’t want to make a puree. Just lightly chop. 

  • Feel free to use other veggies besides kale and carrots. All work great. 

  • You can also add in cooked chicken or meat.
