Soup's On! Cauliflower and Ginger Soup with Spiced Cashews

 

Cauliflower & Ginger Soup with maple spiced cashews

 from One Pot, Pan, Planet by Anna Jones

 


This soup was better than the carrot soup, and the cashew topping was excellent. The cashews should have been really crushed--no chopping was specified in the instructions, but in order to really absorb the chili powder (I opted for that instead of cayenne, since it was a choice), turmeric, coriander, tamari, and maple syrup, more surface area would have been better. And  they would have floated better, too. 

 

Because I have another cauliflower soup recipe, in my Instant Pot cookbook, I followed the instructions in reverse order, first using the sauté feature to make the topping, and setting that aside. Then I used the soup setting for five minutes and I think it was a big time saver, and that was indeed a one pot endeavor. 


The cauliflower was gigantic, from our farm share, and all the other ingredients were on hand--no shopping needed. I will probably make that topping again, perhaps for other soups.
