How to Make Gingery Cauliflower Soup

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  2. Add 1 medium onion, 2 tablespoons grated ginger, and 2 cloves minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is softened and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional), and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
  4. Add 2 medium potatoes (peeled and diced), 1 medium head of cauliflower (cut into florets), and 4 cups of chicken stock.
  5. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  6. Season with salt to taste.
  7. Carefully transfer the soup in batches to a blender. Blend until completely smooth.
  8. Strain the soup through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on the solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
  9. Stir in 1/2 cup heavy cream or coconut milk (for a vegan option).
  10. Gently reheat the soup. Serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro (optional).
