The soup was good, but I think it would have been better if I had used fresh cauliflower instead of frozen.

I found this recipe to be too complicated and time-consuming. I ended up using a different recipe for roasted cauliflower soup.

This soup was a bit bland for my taste. I had to add some additional spices to give it more flavor.

The soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding more coconut milk.
