Equipment
Ingredients
- ½ Cauliflower (½ of cauliflower shown in the picture)
- 2 Carrots
- 1 Onion
- 5 Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Butter or olive oil (I used butter.)
- 2 cups Water or vegetable stock (I used water.)
- 1 cup Milk (used to adjust consistency)
- 1 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper (add according to your taste)
- ⅛ teaspoon Turmeric powder
- Salt (to taste)
Instructions
- Cut the cauliflower into florets and wash them in water. Then, add salt to the florets.

- Add the chopped onions and sauté.
- To the sautéed onion, add the crushed garlic.
- Add pepper powder and turmeric powder to enhance the flavor and color of the cauliflower carrot soup.

- Add chopped cauliflower florets to the carrots and sauté well.
- Add one cup of water to the cauliflower and carrot soup.
- Cover the pan and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer.
- Ensure the vegetables are very tender. Add the slightly warm cauliflower and carrot soup to a blender or use an immersion blender to blend the veggies.
- Pulse the cauliflower and carrot for two minutes to make the puree ready for the soup.
- Transfer the cauliflower and carrot puree to a pan, then add a cup of milk and stir well.
- Boil the cauliflower and carrot soup for one minute. Then, add salt and pepper to taste. It’s ready to serve.
- Cauliflower and carrot soup, made without cream, is ready to serve this winter evening.
Notes
- Use thin or low-fat milk for a light, creamy texture.
- Adjust consistency with warm water or milk after blending.
- Blend the soup while warm and in batches if needed.
- Butter adds richness, but olive oil can be used instead.
- Always taste and adjust seasoning after blending.
