My brain’s all fuzzy. It took longer to type up this recipe than it did to make the soup. Sick or not, I have a weird thing about eating the same dinner two night’s in a row. This time I made Spicy Curried Parsnip and Cauliflower Soup. Take THAT sinuses! It’s simple, delicious and straight to the point with minimal fuss. It’s also great on a cold winter day.
1 ½ quarts Vegetable Stock
1 large head of Cauliflower; chopped
3 large Parsnips; peeled and chopped
1 large Carrot; peeled and chopped
1 large Onion; quartered
4 cloves Garlic; smashed
3 Tablespoons Curry Powder
1 Tablespoon Cumin
1 Tablespoon Ginger Powder
1 teaspoon Cinnamon Powder
1 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
1 Tablespoon Garlic Powder
1 Tablespoon Onion Powder
½ Tablespoon Cayenne Pepper
2 Tablespoons Chile Oil
1 teaspoon Sugar
Salt and Pepper to taste
- Pour the vegetable stock into a large dutch oven over high heat and add in the vegetables, chile oil, spices and seasonings. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 40 minutes.
- Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth, adding any additional water to bring it to your desired consistency. Taste and season accordingly.
- Enjoy, then take a nap!
