Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 55m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 teaspoons finely grated peeled fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 onion, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 head cauliflower (about 1 1/2 pounds), trimmed and cut into florets
2 teaspoons curry powder
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth or water
Fresh cilantro leaves and chopped salted cashews, for serving

Steps:

Melt the butter in a large wide pot or medium Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic, onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender, about 8 minutes. Add the cauliflower and curry powder and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until the cauliflower is well coated in spice and slightly softened, about 5 minutes more. Add the broth and 2 1/2 cups water; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and cook until the cauliflower is very tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool slightly.
Puree the soup in the pot with an immersion blender or, working in batches, transfer the soup to a blender and puree until smooth, being careful not to fill the carafe more than half full per batch (keep the lid cracked to allow steam to escape). Rewarm the soup over medium heat and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper. Ladle into 4 bowls and sprinkle with some cilantro and chopped cashews.

Don't be afraid to adjust the spices: The amount of curry powder and other spices you use can be adjusted to your taste. If you like a mild soup, use less curry powder. If you like a spicy soup, use more. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, coriander, or turmeric, to taste.
Roast the cauliflower before adding it to the soup: This will help to bring out its sweetness and flavor. You can roast the cauliflower in the oven or on a grill.
Use a good quality vegetable broth: This will help to give the soup a rich and flavorful base. You can use store-bought vegetable broth or make your own.
Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes: This will help to allow the flavors to meld and develop.
Serve the soup with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include yogurt, cilantro, and croutons.
