- 1 medium cauliflower florets
- 1 medium onion
- 3-4 cloves garlic
- 1/2 cup butter
- 2 cups vegetable stock
- 1/2 can coconut milk
- 1 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Peel and thinly chop the onion and garlic cloves
Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat and sautee the onion and garlic until translucent
In the meantime, cut and discard the stem at the base of the cauliflower and chop the head into small florets
Add the chopped florets to the pan, sautee for about 5 minutes on low heat
Pour in the vegetable stock, squeeze in the lemon juice, add the salt, pepper, and nutmeg powder, and mix
Let simmer on medium-low for another 10-12 minutes
Use a hand blender to smoothen out the texture and pour in half a can of coconut milk for extra creaminess
Optionally, grate some parmesan and stir it into the soup
