Cauliflower soup

I was aching for some soup today! Cauliflower seems to have the tendency to "go indian"... Goes well when planning to travel India.

Golden cauliflower soup (Indian style)


Ingredients:

One cauliflower

1 dl of red lentils
Onion, chopped finely
½ Red chili, chopped

2 tbsp grated fresh ginger

1 Lime

1 tsp of Turmenic

2 tsp of Curry

300 g of Coconut milk (about one can)

Some olive oil

Fresh parsley (or coriander)

Pepper, salt

Wash and rip the cauliflower to small pieces. Heat the olive oil in a cauldron, and add the onion, red chili, ginger, turmenic and curry. Saute for 20-30 seconds. Add water (about 4 dl), the cauliflower and red lentils. Braise for 10 minutes.

Squeeze the lime juice and add it with the coconut milk to the soup. Let it boil for couple minutes and season with pepper and salt. Sprinkle some parsley on top!

And like always when I'm eating something, Nelli came for share! The all-eater kitten. She knows how to appreciate sweet baking.
