Cauliflower Soup Presentation

Cauliflower Soup

This cauliflower soup is one of those recipes that I often use as a starter when I host a three-course dinner party. It also makes an easy lunch meal prep option as it holds well in the refrigerator and freezer. 

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 6 1x

Ingredients

Scale

23 Tbsp of butter

1 small onion or 1/2 large onion, coarsely chopped

1 large cauliflower

4-5 cups of broth (I use chicken broth, but you can use vegan butter/broth to make it vegan)

Salt and Pepper 

Olive Oil

Instructions

  1. Cut cauliflower into small florets (reserve a few pieces for garnish)
  2. Coarsely chop onion

  4. Add the onions, cook until translucent, around 2-3 minutes
  5. Add cauliflower and cook, often stirring for 2-3 mins

Prep garnish while cooking:

 

  1. Heat 2-3 tbsp of olive oil in a frying pan
  2. Add florets and fry until golden brown
  3. Transfer to paper towel-lined plate to cool 

Prepare Soup:
