Roasted Cauliflower & Curry Soup

(3)

Curry paste adds heat to this antioxidant-rich roasted cauliflower soup. If you want to mellow the heat, you can swap yellow curry paste for the red for a milder flavor. Got leftover curry paste? It will remain fresh for 2 weeks stored in the fridge. Use leftovers to toss with roasted veggies, in marinades or in other healthy recipes that call for curry.

Ingredients

  • 8 cups fresh cauliflower florets

  • 1 large sweet onion, peeled and quartered

  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper

  • 1 (13.5-ounce) can coconut milk, well shaken and stirred

  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

  • 1 tablespoon red curry paste

  • 1 cup water, as needed

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.

  2. Toss cauliflower and onion with oil, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Spread in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast, stirring once, until tender and lightly charred, about 30 minutes.

  3. Reserve about 1/2 cup cauliflower for garnish. Transfer onion and the remaining cauliflower to a blender; add coconut milk, lime juice and curry paste. Secure the lid on the blender and remove the center piece to allow steam to escape. Place a clean towel over the opening; process until smooth, about 1 minute. Stir in water as needed to reach desired consistency.

  4. Divide the soup among 6 bowls; top with the reserved cauliflower.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
