Roasted Cauliflower & Chickpea Soup
This Roasted Cauliflower and Chickpea Soup is a delicious soup recipe made from the humble cauliflower. It is super filling thanks to the addition of chickpeas and the roasted cauliflower adds a wonderful depth of flavor. I always make a double batch as this soup will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days.
Start by roasting cauliflower, chickpeas and garlic. Meanwhile, cook potato cubes and add vegetable broth and water. Boil until the potatoes are very soft before stirring in the roasted cauliflower mixture. Make sure you reserve some for the garnish. Blend the soup and return to the heat before stirring in heavy cream. When you’re ready to serve, spoon the warm soup into bowls and garnish with the reserved cauliflower mixture, some red pepper flakes and fresh thyme leaves. Drizzle each bowl with olive oil and heavy cream and serve immediately.
