Equipment
- Large pot
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ white onion diced
- 1 garlic clove minced or finely diced
- 1 medium cauliflower diced into florets
- 1 zucchini diced
- 1 sweet potato peeled, diced
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 cm fresh ginger grated, or ½ teaspoon ginger powder
- ½ cup coconut milk
- 2.5 cups vegetable broth
- pinch salt
- pinch black pepper optional
To garnish
- parsley or fresh herbs of choice
Instructions
- Cook the diced onion and garlic in olive oil in a large pot on a low heat for 4-5 minutes, until softened.
- Add in the cauliflower, zucchini, sweet potato, root ginger, thyme and turmeric and cook, stirring often, for another 4-5 minutes.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat to a very light simmer. Pour in the coconut milk, season with salt and pepper (if using) and stir well. Cook for a further 20 minutes or until the cauliflower and potato are fork tender.
- Use an immersion blender to blend to a smooth consistency, or transfer to a food processor. You may need to do this in batches.
- Pour into your bowls, and garnish with fresh herbs of your choice. Enjoy!
Notes
- Dice the vegetables into roughly similar sizes for an even cook time.
- If the cauliflower and potato start to stick before adding the vegetable stock, add a touch of water to the pan.
- If the soup is too thick for your preference then add some more vegetable broth or water.
- For those who do not have an immersion blender, you can transfer batches of the soup to a food processor and blend instead.
