• servings: 6 servings
• active time: 5 minutes

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil

half an onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, chopped

1 head of cauliflower, chopped into about 5 cups of chunks or florets

1 cup cashews

1 tablespoon turmeric – see notes

7-8 cups water

2 teaspoons salt

a squeeze of lemon juice

Directions

Sauté

Heat the oil in a deep soup pot. Add the onion, garlic, cauliflower, cashews, and turmeric. Sauté for 10 minutes or until very fragrant.

Simmer

Add the water (I usually start with 4 cups) and salt. Simmer until softened.

Blend

Transfer the soup to a blender and blend into a creamy consistency. It’s best to do this in batches.

Finish

Return to the soup pot and add any additional water (remaining 2-3 cups) if you need to thin it out. Also a good time to season with more salt and a squeeze of lemon juice. Also a good time to top with spiced chickpeas and parsley and olive oil and more salt and put on your most comfy sweater and FALL IN LOVE. ♡
