Warm up with this delicious and comforting roasted cauliflower soup. Blended with potatoes, onions, and a whole roasted garlic bulb, it's enriched with oat cream for a silky texture. Garnish with crispy roasted florets, a drizzle of chili oil, and fresh herbs for an extra touch.
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the Vegetables: Arrange cauliflower florets (reserve a handful for garnish), diced potatoes, and quartered onion on a large baking tray. Cut the top off the garlic bulb and add it to the tray.
Season and Roast: Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Roast for 30-40 minutes or until tender and lightly browned.
Roast the Garnish Florets: In the last 10 minutes, place reserved cauliflower florets on a small tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season, and roast until crispy.
Blend the Soup: Squeeze roasted garlic cloves out of their skins and discard skins. Transfer roasted veggies and garlic to a blender with 2 cups vegetable broth; blend until smooth, adding more broth if needed.
Heat the Soup: Pour the soup into a large pot, stir in oat cream, and heat over medium until warmed. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Serve: Ladle soup into bowls, garnish with crispy cauliflower, a drizzle of extra oat cream, chili oil, and fresh herbs.
