Cauliflower soup! you are quite unlikely to have come across a soup made of only cauliflower! i’ve created this tasty broth from cauliflower, lined with low fat milk. Cauliflower is high in water content and has very little fat. I’ve added milk to enhance the protein and calcium content, and onion and garlic to mask the cooked flavour of cauliflower. Serve it hot on a chilly winter night. This recipe is perfect for those who likes to have milk-based soups!

  1. Heat the oil in a deep non-stick pan, add the onions and sauté on a medium flame till they turn translucent.
  2. Add the cauliflower and sauté on a medium flame for 4 to 5 minutes.

  4. Add the salt and pepper, mix well and simmer till the cauliflower is partially cooked, stirring once in between. Keep aside to cool.
  5. Blend using a hand blender, so the soup looks like a coarse purée.
