Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Start by cutting the cauliflower into florets. Place the florets in a food processor and pulse until the texture resembles rice. Alternatively, you can use store-bought cauliflower rice.
- In a small bowl, mix together the curry powder, garlic powder, ground cumin, paprika, and 1/4 tsp salt. Set aside.
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for about 5 minutes, or until it becomes translucent.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
- Stir the mixed spices into the cooked onions and garlic. Cook for another 2 minutes to let the spices become fragrant.
- Add the cauliflower rice, chopped kale, and diced carrots to the pot. Stir well to combine the vegetables with the spice mixture.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, until the carrots are tender and the flavors meld together.
- Stir in the coconut milk, red pepper flakes, black pepper, and a dash of salt. Let it simmer for another 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to marry.
- Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or spices if needed.
- Ladle the hot soup into bowls and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs or a drizzle of extra coconut milk for added richness.
Tips:
- For a smoother texture, you can blend the soup before adding the kale and then simmer until the kale is tender.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, increase the amount of red pepper or add a diced chili pepper.
- To save time, use pre-riced cauliflower available in most grocery stores.
- For added protein, consider tossing in some cooked chickpeas or lentils.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro or a squeeze of lime juice for a burst of freshness before serving.
