Roasted Cauliflower and Carrot Soup Recipe

Roasted Cauliflower and Carrot Soup

  • By: bigfoot83
  • Cuisine: Vegetarian
  • Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 1 cauliflower
  • 2 large carrots (cut and halved lengthwise)
  • 1 onion, cut into wedges
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 4 cups fat-free vegetable broth
  • 1 large potato, peeled and cubed
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4 drops truffle oil (optional, but good - I typically use walnut oil)
  • Smoked Spanish paprika, to garnish

Method

  1. I use a blender to get this silky smooth, but a food processor or hand blender might also work. Be careful not to burn yourself opening and pouring from the blender because the mixture can be super-heated.
  2. Preheat oven to 400.
  3. Cut the cauliflower into florets and place them with the carrots into a large baking dish sprayed with oil. Lightly spray the top of the cauliflower with oil. Bake for 20 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle the onion wedges and garlic on top of the cauliflower, spray lightly with olive oil, and return to the oven. Cook for 20-25 more minutes, stirring once halfway through.
  5. While the vegetables are roasting, heat the vegetable broth and add the chopped potato. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat. Cook covered on very low until cauliflower is ready.
  6. Add the cauliflower mixture to the broth. Puree it, in batches, in the blender until very smooth. Return it to the pot and add the nutmeg and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for 10 minutes.
  7. Just before serving, stir in a few drops of truffle oil, if desired. Ladle into bowls and serve, sprinkled with smoked Spanish paprika.
