Ingredients

• 1 head cauliflower
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 medium yellow onion
• 4 cloves garlic
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 0.25 cup fresh dill
• 0.25 cup heavy cream (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Remove the leaves and stem from the cauliflower. Break it into medium-sized florets and place them on a baking sheet.

Step 3

Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the cauliflower, then sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Toss well to coat evenly.

Step 4

Roast the cauliflower in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden and tender, flipping halfway through the cooking time.

Step 5

While the cauliflower roasts, dice the onion and mince the garlic.

Step 6

In a large pot, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until softened and translucent.

Step 7

Add the minced garlic to the pot and sauté for an additional minute until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.

Step 8

Once the cauliflower is done roasting, add it to the pot along with the vegetable broth. Stir to combine and bring the mixture to a boil.

Step 9

Reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 10

Using an immersion blender (or working in batches with a regular blender), puree the soup until smooth and creamy.

Step 11

Stir in the fresh dill and heavy cream (if using), then taste and adjust seasoning with extra salt and pepper as needed.

Step 12

Serve warm, garnished with additional dill if desired. Enjoy!
