Curried cauliflower and squash soup
Background
This vegan curried cauliflower and squash soup is not only warming and healthy but rather delicate and really delicious too. My version is not too spicy, so children were able to enjoy it too at our Halloween party - but you can add chilli powder or use hot curry powder if you like it hot. (I just sprinkled some dried chilli flakes on the top of mine). Serve it with naan or flat bread.
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 onion
- 1 small butternut squash
- 1 small cauliflower
- 2 tsp curry powder
- ½ tsp ground coriander
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon turmeric
- 500 ml vegetable broth
- ½ can coconut milk
- To garnish: chopped coriander
Instructions
- Peel and dice the squash (seeds removed). Cut the cauliflower into florets. Finely chop the onion.
- Heat the oil in a saucepan and gently sauté the onion.
- Add the butternut squash and cook for 8 minutes, under cover. Add in the cauliflower and the spices, then stir to coat the veggies well.
- Pour in the vegetable broth, then cover with a lid and bring to the boil. Turn down the heat and gently simmer for 20-25 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.
- Turn off the heat and, using a stick blender, whizz the mixture until you get a smooth, creamy soup. Add the coconut milk and mix. Season to taste and warm up to simmering point.
- Serve with coriander leaves scattered on top (and some dried chilli flakes for extra heat).
