Instructions
- Trim and cut cauliflower heads into florets. Set aside.
Saute
- Select "Saute" on the Instant Pot, then add coconut oil to the pot. Once hot, add onion and cook 3-4 minutes until softened.
- Add the garlic, ginger, curry powder, coriander and salt and cook for 30-40 seconds, just until fragrant.
Pressure Cook
- Add the cauliflower florets and vegetable broth.
- Secure Instant Pot lid, making sure it’s set to “sealing”. Select Manual or Pressure cook (on high pressure) and use the +/- buttons to select 8 minutes.
- When timer beeps and pressure cooking is complete, perform a quick release by carefully moving the valve to “venting”. When the pin drops, remove lid.
Blend
- Add the coconut milk to the pot then, using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth.
Thicken (optional and if desired)
- In a separate bowl, whisk 1.5 Tbsp cornstarch and 2 Tbsp water together until smooth. Stir mixture into the soup and cook a few minutes, until thickened to desired consistency.
Serve
- Ladle into bowls and serve hot, topped with any desired garnishes.
Notes
- Cook time does not include the time for the pressure cooker to come up to pressure, as this can vary from individual to individual. For me, it takes about 10-15 minutes.

- Slow Cooker Directions
- Stovetop Directions
- This soup is not super thick. For a thicker soup, follow the instructions under the "Thicken" heading in the recipe instructions.
- If you don’t have an immersion blender you can blend in smaller batches using a standard blender. Be careful not to fill more than half-way and hold the lid with a folded dish towel to prevent any blender mishaps.
- When using an immersion blender be sure it is fully submerged in the soup before turning it on to prevent splashing and burns (not to mention a mess!).
- This recipe was made with a 6-quart Instant Pot.
- Omit coconut oil.
- Add onion, garlic, ginger, curry powder, coriander, salt, cauliflower florets and vegetable broth to slow cooker.
- Stir, then cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours, or HIGH for 3-4 hours.
- Stir in coconut milk and blend.
- Heat coconut oil over MED heat in a dutch oven or large soup pot. Add onion and saute for about 4 minutes, until softened.
- Add garlic, ginger, curry powder, coriander and salt and cook 30 seconds.
- Add cauliflower florets and vegetable broth. Increase heat and bring to a boil, then reduce to LOW and simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until cauliflower is tender and can be easily pierced with a fork.
- Stir in coconut milk, then use immersion blender to puree until smooth.
