SPICED INDIAN CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Taken from the Ultimate Vegetarian Cookbook, Roz Denny, 1994, Anness Publishing Ltd., page 18. This soup has a GREAT flavor and creamy texture, but doesn't have the fat that cream or half and half has. Makes a great first course or light meal. I am going through boxes and boxes of old cook books and RecipeZaar-ing my fave recipes... then I will take the cookbooks themselves to Goodwill. Back 15 years ago when I first used this recipe, vegetable stock was unheard of in the area I was living. Now I can find vegetable stock easily. I'm going to be making a lot more of this soup.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cauliflower: For the best flavor and texture, choose a head of cauliflower that is firm and heavy for its size, with tightly packed florets.
  • Roast the cauliflower before adding it to the soup: Roasting the cauliflower brings out its natural sweetness and gives the soup a richer flavor.
  • Use a good quality vegetable broth: The broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is low in sodium and made with fresh vegetables.
  • Don't overcook the soup: The cauliflower should be tender but still have a little bit of bite to it. Overcooking the soup will make the cauliflower mushy.
  • Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for cauliflower soup include croutons, shredded cheese, bacon bits, and chopped fresh herbs.

Conclusion:

Spiced Indian cauliflower soup is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a comforting and flavorful soup, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
