Cream of Cauliflower and Almond Soup
The Cream of Cauliflower and Almond Soup is a sumptuous choice with a mild, soothing flavour and creamy consistency interspersed with the exciting crunch of roasted almonds. Both cauliflower and potatoes are known for giving texture and volume to dishes, and naturally, this soup has a rich and luxurious feel, which is complemented well by the mild pungency of onions. As you bite into pieces of crisp roasted almonds in every spoonful, you can’t help wishing that the experience would last forever.
