Recipe for creamy corn soup with roasted cauliflower and potatoes
Does soup need to be on the menu this week?
Try this really fine, creamy corn soup – made on a base of corn, roasted cauliflower, potatoes, and coconut milk.
The soup is round and mild with just a bit of edge from curry and a small pinch of chili, which gives depth to the flavor.
On top is crème fraîche, crispy roasted cauliflower, corn, and toasted pine nuts.
The soup is really easy to make; the cauliflower is roasted while the other soup ingredients simmer in a pot and finally, everything is blended into a creamy delicious soup.
You could boil the cauliflower together with the other ingredients, but it gets a nice slightly nutty flavor when roasted and can also be used for topping – highly recommended.
A wonderfully easy and super healthy soup – perfect everyday food and also good on meat-free days.
If you’re not into meat-free options, fried bacon and maybe some crispy bread croutons could also be quite delicious as toppings.
