Ingredients
- 1 small onion, chopped finely
- 1 small garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon curry powder (Pensey's Balti recommended by HUFF)
- 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 large Granny Smith apples (HUFF 2001 used sweeter apples)
- 4 16s cauliflower flowerets (about 1 small head)
- 1 1/2 16s chicken broth
- 1 16 water
- 1/4 16 heavy cream
Directions
Cook onion, garlic, and curry powder in butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until onion is softened.
Peel and core apples. Chop apple coarsely and add to curry mixture. Add cauliflower, broth, and water and simmer, covered, until cauliflower is very tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
In a blender or food processor, puree soup in batches until very smooth, transferring as pureed to another saucepan. Stir in cream and salt and pepper to taste and heat over moderate heat until hot.
Serve with grated cheddar cheese, if you like.
