Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Curry Cauliflower Soup.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
While that warms up, grab a baking pan and toss in your cauliflower florets along with a generous drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of curry powder, and a handful of mustard seeds.
Step 3
Give everything a good mix until the cauliflower is beautifully coated in those vibrant flavors.
Step 4
Once your oven is ready, pop the pan inside and let the cauliflower roast for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until it’s golden brown and fragrant—this is where the magic happens! While the cauliflower is roasting to perfection, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Step 5
Add in your chopped onion and sauté it until it becomes soft and translucent, which should take around 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 6
The aroma will fill your kitchen and make your mouth water! Once the onion is ready, pour in the chicken broth and add the roasted cauliflower.
Step 7
Bring this delightful mixture to a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer gently, allowing all those flavors to meld together.
Step 8
In a separate small saucepan, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter over medium-low heat.
Step 9
Stir in the flour and keep stirring constantly until the roux thickens and takes on a lovely light brown color—this should take about 5 minutes.
Step 10
Gradually whisk in the milk, continuing to stir until the mixture thickens up nicely, which will take another 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 11
Now, it’s time to bring it all together! Pour the roux into your soup and stir until everything is smooth and creamy.
Step 12
Finally, season your creation with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Step 13
Take a moment to admire your handiwork before serving—this comforting soup is sure to warm your heart and delight your taste buds! Enjoy every spoonful!.
