Easy and delicious cauliflower soup from the oven
Ingredients
- 1 cauliflower about 1kg
- 3 tbsp. native olive oil*
- 1 Onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 L Vegetable broth +/-
- 2 tbsp. vegan butter
- juice of half a lemon
- 1 pinch nutmeg*
- Sea-salt*
- cayenne pepper*
possible topping:
- Roasted cauliflower florets
- small bunch parsley
- small bunch of chives
- spring onions
- sesame black/white
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Clean the cauliflower and cut into individual florets.
- In a bowl, toss the cauliflower with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and cayenne pepper.
- Now spread the cauliflower on the baking sheet.
- Wrap the garlic (complete with the “peel”) in aluminum foil and place on the tray with the cauliflower.
- Bake the cauliflower until tender and lightly caramelized around the edges. (this takes about 30 minutes) Stir about halfway through.
- In the meantime, peel and finely dice the onion.
- Squeeze lemon.
- Rinse the parsley, shake dry and chop.
- Is the cauliflower almost baked? Heat the remaining olive oil in a soup pot over medium-high heat. Sauté onion in hot oil until translucent.
- Now add the cauliflower and garlic (press them out of the skin beforehand) to the onions in the saucepan and pour in the vegetable stock until the vegetables are just covered. Set aside a few pretty rosettes for decoration.
- Bring the pot to a boil. Let everything simmer gently for about 15 minutes.
- Take the soup pot off the stove. Put the hot soup in a blender and puree until smooth.
- ATTENTION: Place a kitchen towel over the tightly closed mixer and hold the lid tightly when starting your device. If possible, start at the lowest level and then work your way up. Blend until silky smooth. The reason for the caution is to prevent the mixer from exploding. more about that in the notes below.
- Add the cold butter, lemon juice and nutmeg and blend again.
- Pour the soup back into the pot and reheat (do not boil). Season to taste with salt, pepper and more lemon juice if needed.
Arranging and serving:
- Divide the roasted cauliflower soup into bowls or deep plates, serve with cauliflower florets and chopped parsley.
Notes
ATTENTION when pureeing hot soups!
Hot soup (or other hot liquid) will steam and expand in the blender, lifting the lid and making a huge mess in the kitchen. In addition, of course, there is the risk of burns, which is even worse than cleaning the kitchen once. So my tip: If you want to puree hot soups, do it in several small batches. Fill the blender only 1/3 full or at most 1/2 full. Take off or loosen the small cap from the lid which allows the air to escape.Place a folded tea towel over the lid and hold everything while blending.
If possible, start at the lowest level and then work your way up.
Repeat until everything is pureed.
Everything always with great caution! I speak from experience…
