Slow-Cooker Curried Cauliflower Soup


Slow-Cooker Curried Cauliflower Soup

There is just enough curry in this soup to give it an exotic touch. For a spicier soup, you can always add more curry powder, but without exaggeration as to not mask the delicate flavor of the cauliflower.

Notes & Wine Advice

QUICKER VERSION
Sauteing the onion in butter with the curry paste gives more flavor to the soup, but it takes more time. To save time, you can skip this step and simply mix the onion and curry paste with the cauliflower, potatoes and broth into the slow cooker.
VARIANT
Omit the garlic and add dried herbs, chili powder or freshly ground black pepper.
