It's very different than other cream of cauliflower. It is my favourite for now. The ginger, the turmeric and the lime juice give the particular taste. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter |
1 teaspoon freshly grated gingerroot |
1 leek, white part only, chopped |
1 stalk celery, diced |
1 large onion, chopped |
2 large carrots, peeled and diced |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
2 tablespoons flour |
1/2 small head cauliflower, cut into small flowerets |
1 bay leaf |
1/4 teaspoon turmeric |
8 cups chicken stock |
salt |
freshly cracked black pepper, to taste |
1/2 cup 35% cream |
1/2 lime, juice of |
fresh parsley, for garnish |
Directions:
1. In a large pot sauté onion in butter on medium heat until golden.
2. Add ginger, leek, celery, carrots and garlic and continue to cook for a further 4 to 5 minutes or until vegetables are just golden.
3. Add the flour and stir until blended.
4. Add remaining ingredients, except cream, lime juice and parsley and bring to a boil.
5. Cover and reduce heat to low.
6. Simmer the soup for 30 minutes or until cauliflower is tender.
