Last autumn I was given a bunch of brassica seedlings by a very nice old gentlemen, who was impressively knowledgeable in gardening. The seedlings were from his own seed collection, which he must have been doing for a very long time.Sadly, in September this year he passed away after a long illness. His seedlings had grown into impressive plants at that time. And I decided to let some of them go to flower to keep saving those seeds, in memory of Cookie, man of the earth.
When a ripe cauliflower sparks a new Cauli Potato Soup
Now I have another cauli of Cookie’s more than ready to be eaten. So I have tried something new with it.
A creamy, vegan and gluten-free cauli-potato soup. With only a few ingredients and quick and easy to cook! I was very pleased with the result! 🙂
Creamy Cauliflower Potato Soup – Vegan & Dairy-Free
Ingredients
- 1 cauliflower
- 700 g potato
- 1 small onion
- some cooking oil
- 3 1/2 cup water

- 60 g cashews ✳ Affiliate link: When you click on one of these links and make a purchase through the partner website, I receive a small commission from your purchase. This helps me keep my blog running. Thank you for your support! 😊 (soaked in filtered water for at least 3 hours, then drained)
- 1/2 cup water
- juice of 1/2 small lemon
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar optional
- some chopped parsley for extra flavor and healthy goodness 🙂
Instructions
- Peel and chop the potatoes in bite size cubes. Cut the cauli flower into small pieces (remember that you can also use the stalk after chopping off the hard ‘peel’). Chop the onion into little cubes.
- Heat the coconut-oil in a large pot and fry the onions until soft. Then add water and potatoes. Bring to boil and simmer for approx. 10-15 minutes.
- In the meantime blend the cashew nuts with the water until it is a fine cream. Place aside.
- After the potatoes have cooked for 10-15 minutes, mash them roughly inside the pot with a potato masher. Then add the cauli let simmer for approx. 5 minutes.
- Finish with cashew nut cream and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Add lemon juice and apple cider vinegar just before serving.
