Cauliflower And Carrot Soup Food

CURRIED CAULIFLOWER AND CARROTS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Whisk together the curry powder, cumin, salt, pepper and olive oil in a medium bowl.
• Spread the cauliflower, carrots, and onion in a single layer on a large baking sheet-lined with tin foil. Drizzle with the dressing and toss so it is thoroughly coated.
• Roast the vegetables in the oven until tender and browned, about 40 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking. Remove to a serving bowl and sprinkle with parsley and a drizzle of olive oil on top. Serve hot or at room temperature.

CHILLED CARROT AND CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in large pot over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the carrots, cauliflower, red pepper flakes, lemon zest, cumin, stock, and 2 cups water and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer over low heat until the carrots are very tender, about 30 to 40 minutes. Let the soup cool slightly, and then blend until smooth, working in batches. Pour the soup into a large bowl and whisk in 1/2 cup of the yogurt. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Chill the soup in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours up to 24 hours. Serve the soup in individual bowls with dollops of remaining yogurt, and some chopped green onion.
• When blending hot liquids: Remove liquid from the heat and allow to cool for at least 5 minutes. Transfer liquid to a blender or food processor and fill it no more than halfway. If using a blender, release one corner of the lid. This prevents the vacuum effect that creates heat explosions. Place a towel over the top of the machine, pulse a few times then process on high speed until smooth.

LEMONY CARROT AND CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• In a large, dry pot over medium heat, toast coriander seeds until fragrant and dark golden-brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a mortar and pestle and coarsely crush.
• Return the pot to medium heat. Add the oil and heat until warm. Stir in onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and lightly colored, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook 1 minute.
• Add carrots, crushed coriander, salt and 6 cups water to the pot. Stir in the miso until it dissolves. Bring mixture to a simmer and cook, uncovered, 5 minutes. Stir in cauliflower and cook, covered, over medium-low heat until the vegetables are very tender, about 10 minutes.
• Remove the soup from the heat. Using an immersion blender, purée the soup until smooth. (Alternatively, you can let soup cool slightly then purée it in batches in a food processor or blender.) If necessary, return the puréed soup to the heat to warm through. Stir in the lemon zest and juice just before serving. Drizzle with oil and sprinkle with chile, sea salt and cilantro leaves.

SPICED CARROT CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and cook the onions for 3 minutes, or until soft.
• Dissolve the vegetable bouillon in the water and add to the pot.
• Add the remaining ingredients to the pot and stir to combine.
• Bring to a boil, cover, and reduce heat to simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are fork tender.
• Using an immersion blender or standing blender, puree all of the ingredients until smooth.

CAULIFLOWER AND CARROTS SOUP

ROASTED CARROT AND CAULIFLOWER SOUP

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 410 degrees F.
• Add the carrots and cauliflower to a medium-sized bowl. Add the olive oil and 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of pepper. Toss to coat.
• Place the carrots and cauliflower on a baking sheet and roast for about 20 minutes, turning once or twice during roasting.
• Add the broth to a large pot, then add the roasted carrots, cauliflower, onion, thyme and remaining salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, for about 20 minutes.
• Remove the soup from the heat. Use an immersion blender and carefully blend the ingredients until smooth (you could also use a regular blender, adding the soup in small batches and blending).
• Add the cream, a little at a time, and continue to blend until incorporated.
• Serve in individual bowls, garnished with the slivered almonds or fresh parsley.
