Creamy Spiced Cauliflower Soup
Creamy Spiced Cauliflower Soup
1 T. olive or coconut oil
2 medium yellow onions, diced
1 bay leaf
1 1/4 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. kosher salt
1 tsp. ground turmeric
1/2 tsp. ground coriander
1/8 tsp. ground cardamom
dash of ground black pepper
sprinkling of crushed red pepper flakes
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 1/2 C. vegetable broth
1 large head of cauliflower, roughly chopped to the same size
1 C. canned coconut milk
fresh dill
In a large soup pot, heat the oil over medium-low. Add all the aromatic ingredients, except for the garlic. Sauté, stirring occasionally until the onions become translucent, about 10 minutes. Then, add the garlic and sauté another few minutes. Add the broth and cauliflower and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to a simmer and allow to cook for about 15 minutes, until the cauliflower is tender. Remove from heat and transfer carefully to a blender. Blend on high (allowing steam to vent) for a few minutes, until silky and smooth. Return to pot. (Can use immersion blender) Stir in coconut milk, garnish with dill to serve.
