Description
A creamy and flavorful roasted cauliflower soup made with coconut milk, roasted garlic, and aromatic vegetables. This dairy-free soup delivers rich, caramelized flavors from perfectly roasted cauliflower.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 medium (1.5 lbs) Cauliflower head
- 6 whole Garlic cloves
- 4 cups low-sodium Vegetable broth
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 1 cup full-fat Coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prep and Preheat: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut cauliflower into uniform florets.
- Season Cauliflower: Toss cauliflower florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Spread evenly on prepared baking sheet.
- Prepare Garlic: Wrap whole garlic cloves in aluminum foil with a drizzle of olive oil. Place alongside cauliflower on baking sheet.
- Roast Vegetables: Roast for 25-30 minutes until cauliflower is golden brown and tender. Garlic should be soft and fragrant.
- Sauté Onion: Heat olive oil in large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Combine and Simmer: Add roasted cauliflower, garlic, vegetable broth, and coconut milk to pot. Bring to a gentle simmer.
- Blend Until Smooth: Use immersion blender to puree soup until completely smooth. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Notes
- Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet – this prevents proper browning and creates steam instead of caramelization
- For extra richness, reserve some roasted cauliflower florets to stir in after blending for texture contrast
- Adjust consistency with additional broth if too thick, or simmer uncovered to reduce if too thin
- Let the soup rest for 5 minutes after blending to allow flavors to meld together perfectly
