A simple pick-me-up soup to bring a little sunshine to your life and a boost to your immune system. On the table in 30 minutes with little prep time, it’s perfect for a busy day. Keep it simple, jazz it up with sliced chilli and fried shallots, or bulk it up with shredded chicken and canned chickpeas.

1 tbs extra virgin olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, smashed
1 head cauliflower, cut into small chunks
800ml chicken broth or stock (we used Bull Head chicken broth)
2 tsp ground turmeric
Juice of 1 lime
Greek yoghurt, to drizzle
Coriander sprigs, to serve

Method

1.

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook onion and garlic, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, or until softened. Add cauliflower, broth and turmeric and bring to the boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and cook, covered, for 20 minutes, or until cauliflower is soft. Remove from heat. Add lime juice and, using a handheld stick blender, whiz until smooth. Check seasoning and adjust if necessary.
2.

Ladle soup into bowls and add a dollop of yoghurt. Season with freshly ground black pepper and serve sprinkled with coriander sprigs.
