Garam Masala Roasted Tomato & Cauliflower Soup

This is not your plain old tomato soup. I’ve combined some of my favorite savory spices to blend them into one delicious satisfying bowl of goodness. Let me tell you more.

What is Garam Masala?

It is an Indian spice blend used to make curry, stews, and yes soups. Cinnamon, cumin, cardamon, and coriander are combined to create a savory spice mix. I also add in extra cumin and turmeric. If you like earthy, savory spices with a little heat then Garam Masala is for you. Many grocery stores stock this spice where you would find regular spices. You can also purchase it on amazon. 

Is this soup spicy?

The beauty of a soup like this is that you can adjust the amount of spice. Want it spicier? Simply add in more curry and Garam Masala. This is one of those recipes that you can taste and adjust along the way.

Tell me how to prepare it

Roasting the fresh tomatoes and cauliflower brings out their flavor before adding them to the soup. Then, we blend the veggies together with some canned tomatoes and lots of yummy spices. This Garam Masala Roasted Tomato and Cauliflower soup is pureéd. I used an immersion blender ( I use this simple inexpensive one) but a regular blender works just fine as well.

Can I make this soup ahead?

Yes indeed! This tasty soup can be prepared ahead and reheated later. It can also be frozen for later use.

This soup will be on repeat at our house this winter. Hope you enjoy it as well. Bon Appetit.
