To start, sauté the chopped onions and garlic in olive oil. Add the spices and cook, stirring, until aromatic. Next, add the cauliflower, apples, and chicken broth. Season with salt and black pepper. Simmer until the cauliflower is perfectly tender. Finally, purée the soup until smooth, then stir in the honey and heavy cream. For a spiced garnish, toss the finely diced apples with a pinch of curry powder. Serve hot and enjoy!
To make the Curried Cauliflower Soup with Apples, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large soup pot over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil. Add 1 roughly chopped onion and 3 smashed garlic cloves. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 4 minutes.
Add 2 teaspoons curry powder and ½ teaspoon cinnamon and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
Add the cauliflower florets, 1 chopped apple, 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper. Bring to a boil.
Once at a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the pot with a lid and cook until the cauliflower is tender, 20 minutes.
Use an immersion blender or a food processor to purée the soup until completely smooth.
Stir in 2 tablespoons honey and ⅓ cup heavy cream. Bring the soup to a simmer. Taste and adjust for salt, pepper and honey. Keep the soup warm while preparing the garnish.
Mix 1 diced apple with a heaping ¼ teaspoon curry powder.
Ladle the soup among bowls and garnish with a spoonful of curried apples. To freeze, leave out the heavy cream and transfer the soup to a freezer-safe container. Freeze for up to 3 months. To serve, defrost the soup in the refrigerator for 12 hours and then reheat it on the stovetop over medium heat. Then add the heavy cream and let heat through before serving.
