Ingredients

• 1 head (about 600-700g) Cauliflower
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 medium (diced) Yellow onion
• 3 cloves (minced) Garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon (minced) Ginger
• 2 teaspoons Curry powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Ground turmeric
• 4 cups Vegetable stock
• 1 cup Coconut milk
• 1 teaspoon (or to taste) Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon (or to taste) Black pepper
• 0.25 cup (chopped, for garnish) Fresh cilantro
• 1 lime (optional, for serving) Lime wedges

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Cut the cauliflower into florets and spread them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 3

Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and tender.

Step 4

While the cauliflower roasts, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Step 5

Add the diced onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until soft and translucent.

Step 6

Stir in the minced garlic, ginger, curry powder, cumin, and turmeric. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 7

Once the cauliflower is roasted, add it to the pot along with the vegetable stock. Stir to combine.

Step 8

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes.

Step 9

Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth, or carefully transfer it to a blender in batches to blend.

Step 10

Return the soup to the pot (if using a blender) and stir in the coconut milk. Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.

Step 11

Heat the soup through for 2-3 minutes, but do not let it boil.

Step 12

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve with optional lime wedges for an added burst of brightness.
