It’s definitely soup weather at the moment so I thought I’d create a vegetarian Quick Curried Cauliflower Soup. I’ve never really been a fan of cauliflower soup (mum used to do one with parsley and lemon juice), so spicing things up seemed the way to go.

As I had some coconut oil I decided that this would be perfect to add an exotic back note but if you don’t have any then just use whatever oil you have.

I used mild curry powder as I think it’s just the right amount of heat to enhance the cauliflower flavour and not over power it. I also added cumin, coriander and turmeric along with some red chilli and garlic for greater depth of flavour.

The thing that really surprised me just was how creamy this soup was. My first attempt last week was more like a puree as I hadn’t realised quite how thick and creamy it would turn out.

So this week I upped the stock and milk content, tweaked the spices and got the perfect consistency and flavour. In fact hubby said my Quick Curried Cauliflower Soup was perfect and he doesn’t mince his words!

The garnish of dried crispy onions is a nod to onion bhajis which go hand in glove with curry in my eyes and go really well with this soup.

So many people seem to have flu or colds at the moment, I still haven’t shaken off the cold I got straight after Christmas, so if you have someone in your household suffering I think my Quick Curried Cauliflower Soup would be great as it’s so comforting and warming.

Do you like the china I used for this shoot? It’s all from my childhood, I was given the brown pottery tureen when I left home and was recently given the Brown Arabia china when mum was having a clear out.

I have vivid memories of Goulash being served in the tureen! Do you have dishes that were handed down to you? What do you remember being served in them?

    This sounds so nourishing and comforting Camilla… I’m making a batch of soup every weekend at the moment to see me through weekday lunches, so I”m going to give this one a whirl. I love family crockery… my granny left me her blue spode which reminds me of cooked breakfasts and high teas at her house. Happy days.

    Cauliflower is SUCH an under-rated vegetable but one of my favourites. I’ve never turned it into a soup though. Sounds lush.

    Your china looks super smart. I love soup at this time of year, but rarely think to make it with cauliflower. I bet it’s scrumptious.

      Thanks Choclette, yes I think this is the first cauliflower soup I’ve ever made and it’s a total winner:-)
