Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large head of cauliflower (about 2 lbs)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup milk or plant-based alternative
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • Optional: pinch of nutmeg, fresh herbs for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the cauliflower into florets and toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly browned.
  2. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat another tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion for 5-7 minutes until softened, then add minced garlic and sauté briefly.
  3. Add the roasted cauliflower to the pot along with vegetable broth. Simmer for 15-20 minutes until everything is very tender.
  4. Blend the mixture until smooth using a blender or immersion blender. Return to heat and stir in your milk or plant-based alternative. Adjust seasoning before serving.
