    Substitutions and Variations

    This creamy curried cauliflower soup is a delicious and healthy way to warm up on a chilly day. Here are some of our favorite substitutions and variations:

    • Potatoes: If you're looking to cut down on carbs, you can substitute the potatoes with turnips. They have a slightly peppery flavor that works well with the spices in this soup. If you're a fan of sweet potatoes, you might like our Sweet Potato and Black Bean Quesadilla.
    • Coconut Milk: For a richer flavor, you can substitute the light coconut milk with full-fat coconut milk. If you prefer a dairy option, heavy cream will also work beautifully in this recipe.
    • Spices: Feel free to play around with the spices in this recipe. For a smokier flavor, you could add a touch of smoked paprika. Or for some heat, a pinch of cayenne pepper would work wonders.

    How to Make Curried Cauliflower Soup

    Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a bowl, toss cauliflower with spices and oil.

    Step 2: Spread on the baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes. Cool and process to a rice-like texture.

    Step 3: In a large pot, heat olive oil and sauté onion, carrot, and salt. Add garlic and sauté.

    Step 4: Add potatoes, cauliflower rice, tomatoes, broth, salt, and pepper. Cook for 10 minutes. Add coconut milk and cook for 5 more minutes. Add spinach and cook until wilt.

    What to Serve with Curried Cauliflower Soup

    Bread

    • Some crusty bread or a side of naan is perfect for dipping into this creamy soup. It's also a great way to make the meal feel a bit more filling.

    Protein

    • While this soup is plenty filling on its own, you can always add some protein to round out the meal. Grilled chicken or shrimp would be delicious alongside this soup.
    • If you're looking for a vegetarian option, try adding some chickpeas or tofu to the soup itself. They'll soak up the flavors of the curry and make the soup even more satisfying.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Is cauliflower rice the same as regular rice?

    No, cauliflower rice is not the same as regular rice. Regular rice is a grain, while cauliflower rice is simply cauliflower that has been chopped or processed into small, rice-like pieces. It's a great low-carbohydrates, gluten-free, and grain-free alternative to traditional rice.

    How long does curried cauliflower soup keep?

    Curried cauliflower soup can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days. Make sure to store it in an airtight container to maintain its freshness. You can also freeze it for up to 2-3 months.
