- 1 large head of cauliflower, cut into florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup coconut milk (or heavy cream)
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh chives or parsley for garnish (optional)
- Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss cauliflower florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on the baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until golden brown, stirring halfway through.
- In a large pot over medium heat, sauté chopped onion in olive oil until translucent (about 5 minutes). Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute.
- Add the roasted cauliflower and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring to a simmer.
- Stir in ground cumin and smoked paprika; simmer for 5 minutes.
- Use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth, or transfer to a regular blender in batches.
- Stir in the coconut milk or heavy cream. Heat through for 2 minutes without boiling.
- Adjust seasoning and serve hot with fresh herbs.
Notes
- For a deeper flavor, reserve a few roasted florets to top the soup before serving.
- If using a regular blender, remove the center piece of the lid to allow steam to escape and cover with a towel.
- To make this recipe strictly Vegan, ensure you use coconut milk instead of heavy cream.
