Ingredients
  

1 medium head of cauliflower, chopped into florets

1 large onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups vegetable or chicken broth

1 cup heavy cream or coconut milk (for a dairy-free option)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and black pepper to taste

Fresh chives or parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

    Add Cauliflower and Spices: Add the chopped cauliflower, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir well to combine and cook for 3-4 minutes to slightly soften the cauliflower.

      Pour in the Broth: Pour in the vegetable or chicken broth, bringing the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender.

        Blend the Soup: Remove the pot from heat and let it cool slightly. Using an immersion blender, puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can blend the soup in batches using a countertop blender (be careful with hot liquids).

          Stir in Cream: Return the blended soup to the pot (if using a countertop blender) and stir in the heavy cream or coconut milk over low heat. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if necessary.

            Serve with Garnish: Ladle the creamy cauliflower soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped chives or parsley.

              Enjoy!: Serve hot with crusty bread or your favorite crackers on the side.
