Creamy Vegan Cauliflower Soup (With Potato & No Cream)

This is the best vegan cauliflower soup without any dairy substitutes. No cream or milk of any type is needed to make it thick and creamy. What do you need then? Potatoes! If you blend this cauliflower potato soup, it will essentially have a mousse-like texture.

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 Onion (medium)
  • 3 cloves Garlic
  • 3 Potatoes (medium)
  • 2 Carrots (medium)
  • 1 head Cauliflower
  • 10 cup Veggie broth
  • 1 tsp Ground cumin seeds
  • ½ tsp Salt and pepper (each or to taste)

Instructions

Prepare the ingredients

  • Take the leaves off the cauliflower and cut them into florets. If the florets are big, you can cut them in half or into quarters. Use the stem if it looks healthy and cut it as small as 1 * 1 inch.
  • Peel and finely chop the onion and the garlic.
  • Peel and dice the potatoes and carrots. You can shorten the cooking time by dicing the potatoes and carrots smaller like 1 * 1 inch. You will blend them at the end so no need to be nice, they just need to be small and even.

Making vegan cauliflower soup

  • Preheat stockpot or a larger pot over medium heat. Add olive oil with chopped onion and garlic. Cook them until soft and glassy.
  • When they are ready, add chopped carrots and potatoes and stir for a minute.
  • Add cauliflower florets and stir for another minute.
  • Pour the vegetable broth and add the seasoning: cumin, pepper, and salt.
  • Lower the heat if needed and simmer it until veggies are soft.
  • Blend it until it is smooth. To get an unbelievably smooth, mousse-like cream soup use a high-power blender like Vitamix.
