Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Large Head Cauliflower
  • 2 Tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 Medium Onion
  • 3 Cloves Garlic
  • 1 Medium Potato
  • 4 Cups Vegetable broth
  • 1 Tsp Dried thyme
  • 1/2 Tsp Nutmeg
  • To taste Salt and pepper
  • 1/2 Cup Unsweetened almond milk
  • For granish Fresh parsley
  • 1 Tbsp Fresh lemon juice

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Vegetables: Trim the cauliflower into florets and peel and dice the potato.
  2. Sauté the Aromatics: Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute, being careful not to let it brown.
  3. Cook the Vegetables: Add the cauliflower florets and diced potato to the pot. Stir for a couple of minutes to incorporate the flavors.
  4. Add Broth and Seasoning: Pour in the vegetable broth, dried thyme, and nutmeg. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 20 minutes, or until the cauliflower and potato are fork-tender.
  5. Blend the Soup: Use an immersion blender to puree the soup directly in the pot until smooth and creamy. Alternatively, transfer to a blender in batches and puree until silky smooth.
  6. Add Milk: Stir in the almond milk (or your preferred dairy/non-dairy milk) and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes to incorporate the flavors.
  7. Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Consistency Adjustments: If the soup is too thick after blending, add more vegetable broth or almond milk to reach your desired texture.
  • Vegetable Variations: Feel free to add other vegetables like carrots, leeks, or celery to customize the flavor.
  • For a Richer Soup: You can substitute almond milk with coconut milk or regular cream for a creamier texture.
  • Seasoning: Always taste and adjust the seasoning as you go. A pinch of chili flakes can add a subtle heat if desired.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove, adding more liquid if necessary. Freezing is not recommended as it can affect the soup's texture.
