    Recipe Introduction


    "This soup hints of Indian/Asian flavors. Serve this with a mixed green salad with some home-grown tomatoes and you'll have a filling and satisfying meal. This soup is Wynonna's all-time favorite!"

    List of Ingredients




    2 tablespoons olive oil
    Head of cauliflower, chopped into 2-inch pieces
    Four stalks celery, diced into 1-inch pieces
    Half of a medium-sized onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
    Thumb-sized piece of ginger, peeled and minced
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1/2 habanero, minced
    1 tablespoon hot, madras-style curry
    2 teaspoons cumin
    1/2 teaspoon cayenne
    1/2 teaspoon ground thyme
    1 quart chicken broth
    1 teaspoon kosher salt
    Juice of 2 lemons cut in half
    1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
    Fresh ground pepper to taste

    Recipe



    Prep all ingredients. Have all pre-vegetables cut and spices measured (these dried spices and herbs can be placed in one container after measuring).

    To toast the pine nuts, place them in a pie tin, in a preheated 400� oven for 7 to 8 minutes until golden brown.

    To make the soup, use a wide-bottomed soup pan on medium-high heat. Add oil. Before it smokes, add the cauliflower, celery and onion. Saut� 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally until vegetables become soft. Add garlic and habanero and saut� briefly about 30 to 40 seconds. Turn heat to medium. Add ginger and spices, saut� another 40 to 50 seconds. Add chicken broth and bring to a boil. Then, lower heat so that soup has a consistent simmer. Allow soup to cook 45 minutes. Using an immersion blender, puree soup until completely smooth. Or strain soup and puree solids in either a blender or a food processor. Add broth back and combine with puree. Ladle soup into four bowls.

    Squeeze half of a lemon over each bowl and add a sprinkle of pine nuts.
