Anti-Inflammatory Roasted Cauliflower and Turmeric Soup

This low carb recipe is a huge winner! It is definitely one of the most loved recipes from my Low Carb Winter Warmers recipe eBook and so I had to share it with all of you here!

The addition of turmeric curcumin makes this soup have potent antioxidant properties, among many other benefits!

It’s easy (as always) and the whole family loves this one too! I can’t wait for you to try it!

Recipe

Serves: 3

Time: 45 mins

Ingredients:

• 1 large head cauliflower (approximately 800 g)

• 3 garlic cloves

• 2 ½ tbsp olive oil

• 1 tsp turmeric

• 1 tsp ground cumin

• 1 tsp chilli flakes

• ½ tsp salt

• 1 medium brown onion

• 3 cups organic vegetable stock

• ¼ cup light coconut cream

• 1/2 cup coriander leaves

Method:

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C.

2. Smash the garlic cloves with the side of the knife.

3. Cut cauliflower into florets, then place in a large bowl with the smashed garlic and drizzle with 2 tbsp olive oil. Shake the bowl a few times to coat the cauliflower evenly with the oil.

4. Sprinkle over the cumin, turmeric, salt and chilli flakes. Toss well to coat evenly.

5. Place the cauliflower on a large baking tray and bake in the oven until browned and tender, usually about 25-30 minutes, turning the florets occasionally so they are evenly cooked. Reserve 1 cup (to top the soup with at the end).

6. Meanwhile, heat a medium pot over medium heat, then add 1 tsp olive oil and the brown onion and cook for about 2-3 minutes, until clear. Add the broth and the remaining roasted cauliflower to the pot, then bring to a boil and cook (covered) on low for 15 minutes.

7. Using a stick blender, blend until smooth. Alternatively, use a regular blender in batches. Add salt to taste as needed, then stir in coconut milk and serve topped with the reserved roasted cauliflower chunks, coriander (or another fresh herb) and an extra drizzle of coconut milk.

8. This meal is low in protein, so I suggest also eating approximately 150 calories worth of a high protein food such as eggs, chicken, a protein powder shake, tuna, tofu, lamb, beef or pork. OR, stir through some tasteless collagen protein powder!
