Roasted Cauliflower Soup

Why not curl up with a bowl of my warming, rich and creamy Roasted Cauliflower Soup! I was never a big fan of cauliflower soups, I always found them a bit bland.

But then inspiration struck – by roasting the cauliflower first you get a gorgeous caramel flavor which really gives the soup some depth. And once you add the garlic, fragrant nutmeg and butter, you have an utterly delicious combination loaded with flavor! This soup is already gluten-free and you can also make it vegan by switching out the butter for a nut butter.

So, how to cook Roasted Cauliflower Soup?

Steps to make Roasted Cauliflower Soup

1	Preheat the oven
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment.
2	Bake the cauliflower	35
Lay the cauliflower florets out on the baking sheet. Sprinkle over 2 tablespoons of the oil and a little of the salt and toss to coat. Bake for between 25-35 minutes, until the florets are tender and have started to caramelize around the edges. Give them a stir halfway through cooking.
3	Cook the garlic and onion	5
When the cauliflower is nearly ready, heat the remaining oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and a little salt, and cook for about 5 minutes until the onion has softened but not turned brown. Add the garlic and cook for a further minute, continuously stirring.
4	Add the remaining ingredients	25
Pour the broth into the pan. Keep 4 of the cauliflower florets aside for a garnish and add the rest to the pot. Bring the liquid to a gentle simmer and then cook for 20 minutes, stirring every now and again.
5	Blend the soup	5
Remove the soup from the heat and leave to cool for a couple of minutes, before transferring to the blender (in batches if necessary). Add the butter, lemon juice, and nutmeg and blend. Check for seasoning and add more salt if needed. You can also add more lemon if you think it’s needed.
6	Serving Roasted Cauliflower Soup
Divide the soup into bowls, top with one of the florets and scatter over the chopped garnish.

The extra step of roasting the florets first in this Roasted Cauliflower Soup is absolutely worth the effort in my opinion! Deliciously rich and creamy, it’s a real fall/winter winner. Do you agree? Let me know in the comments section!
