    Spiced Creamy Cauliflower Soup (Vegan)

    Nov 13, 2015 · 2 Comments

    My 229th recipe, "Spiced Creamy Cauliflower Soup with Coconut Milk", a creamy, healthy and flavorful homemade soup. It has been a hectic couple of weeks preparing for Diwali and finally the D-day is over now with lots of fun and celebration. I got a chance now to put down my feet for a while until it is the turn for the next celebration. Usually, I do not do much for Thanksgiving except for the crazy shopping on Black Friday. From a cooking perspective, the only activity for me would be to enjoy cooking with some of the best seasonal ingredients and everything which screams thanksgiving. But I believe that can wait for a few more days. I have been gorging upon all the snacks and sweets I prepared for Diwali during the last couple of days. I wanted to first give my tummy a little break before getting into the holiday season. And with the weather cooling off considerably, a bowl of warm home made soup was the way to go.

    Instead of making my usual soups, I wanted to make a soup with a slight kick which is perfect for the coming winter months as well. So it was the turn of my favorite veggie, cauliflower, to be turned into a creamy and healthy soup. Addition of coconut in Indian dishes complements nicely with spicy veggies. So, I chose to use coconut milk instead of regular dairy milk or cream to cool off your palette in this creamy cauliflower soup. This soup is very easy to make, creamy, flavorful, filling and the spice add just the right amount of zing needed to combat this cool weather 🙂

    Notes | FAQ

    - Adjust the quantity of spices and salt based on the size of your cauliflower.
    - Since this is a soup, the flavor of the spices should be subtle and not overpowering. Adjust based on your taste preference.
    - I used freshly made coconut milk which was not too thick or thin. In case of using coconut milk from the can, adjust the quantity based on the thickness of the coconut milk.
    - For added flavor, you can choose to use Vegetable broth instead of water.
    - Adjust the quantity of liquid based on your desired thickness for soup.
