- 1 tablespoon Frying oil
- 1 medium onion
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1- inch (3cm) piece of ginger
- 1 tablespoon garam masala
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground curcuma
- 1 large cauliflower or 2 small 2 lb (900g) cauliflower florets
- 3 medium potatoes 11oz/300g
- 5 cups (1.2 L) vegetable broth

Instructions
- Prepare the ingredients: Dice the onion, chop the garlic and ginger finely. Cut the cauliflower into small florets. Peel the potatoes and cut into 2/3-1-inch chunks (2-3 cm).
- Heat the oil in a large pot, add the onion and cook over medium heat for about 5-6 minutes until soft.

- Take about 2 cups of the soup and blend it until smooth (this is optional, but the soup will be more delicious and creamy). Make sure you scoop lots of cauliflower and potato chunks, and cashews with the broth. Add the pureed soup back to the pot.
- Season the soup to taste with lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
- Enjoy!
Notes
Ingredient notes:
You can use frozen cauliflower, you don't have to thaw it. Potatoes and nuts can be omitted, although they make the soup more creamy and tasty. You can add peeled almonds instead of cashew nuts. You could use other types of plant-based milk, like almond milk, but the soup won't be as rich and creamy. The spices: I used garam masala, cumin, and curcuma. If your local grocery store doesn't carry these spices, you can try to buy them in any Asian grocery store or on the Internet. I tried making this soup with more easily available Western-style curry powder, but it wasn't as tasty. What you could also add to the soup: instead of these spices, you can spice the soup with Thai curry paste. You could also add a can of crushed tomatoes. For some sweetness: you could add a quarter of an apple (blend it with the part of the soup that is being mixed) or 2-3 Tbsp of mango puree.
