Method

1. Chop Cauliflower head into florets. Remove stems from kale and cut leaves into small pieces. Chop the carrot.

2. In a large stock pot, heat 2 tablespoons of TIANA® Odourless Butter and add diced onions. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes until onions become translucent. Add garlic and cook for 2 minutes or until garlic becomes fragrant.

3. Add cauliflower, kale, carrot and vegetable stock to the pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes until cauliflower, kale and carrot are tender.

4. Blend soup with a blender until smooth. Return to stock pot and simmer for an additional 10 minutes.

5. Meanwhile, roast the cashews in a pan with 1 tablespoon of TIANA® Odourless Butter.

5. Serve soup hot. Add cashews on top. You can serve it with Vegan Gluten Free Soda Bread slices here.

To add a creamy touch without cream, add 240 ml of coconut milk. To make fresh coconut milk, dilute TIANA® Fairtrade Organics Raw Coconut Goodness in warm water: 1 part of TIANA® Raw Coconut Goodness (here 60ml) to 3 parts of water (here 180ml). Once coconut milk added, bring soup to another boil, and simmer for 5 minutes, and serve.
