Hands on Time: 20 - 35 minutes
Overall Time: 30 - 45 minutes
Ingredients:
- Cauliflower Florets
- Fresh Cream
- Fresh Parsley
- Low Fat Fresh Milk
- Medium Curry Powder
- Onion
- Onions
- Sourdough Baguette
- Sourdough Baguettes
- Truffle Oil
From your kitchen:
- Oil (cooking, olive or coconut)
- Salt & Pepper
- Water
- Blender
- Butter (optional)
THE BASE
Place a pot (with a lid) over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced onion and ½ the curry powder until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add ¾ of the cauli pieces and fry with the lid on until beginning to brown, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally).
ADD THE CREAMY
Once the cauli & onion mix is done, lower the heat and pour in the milk, the cream, and 100ml of water. Simmer until softened and slightly reduced, 8-10 minutes.
SILKY SMOOTH
Pour the creamy cauli mixture into a blender. Pulse until smooth and pour back into the pot. Season and stir through ½ the truffle oil. Add a splash of water if the soup is too thick. Cover and set aside.
CURRIED CAULI
Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil or a knob of butter. When hot, fry the remaining cauliflower pieces with the remaining curry powder (to taste) until lightly charred, 5-6 minutes. Remove from the pan and season.
GOLDEN SOURDOUGH
Spread butter (optional) or oil over the sourdough rounds. Return the pan to medium heat. When hot, toast the sourdough rounds until golden, 1-2 minutes per side. Warm up the soup before serving (if necessary).
SOUP’S UP!
Bowl up a hearty helping of the cauliflower soup. Pile on the curried cauli pieces and drizzle over the remaining truffle oil. Garnish with the chopped parsley. Serve the toasted sourdough rounds alongside for dipping!
