How to Prepare Golden Roasted Cauliflower Turmeric Coconut Soup [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Preheat oven to 425ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment.
Toss cauliflower florets with 2 tablespoons oil and spread in single layer on baking sheet. Roast for 30 minutes, tossing halfway. Broil for a couple minutes as desired for extra caramelization.
When cauliflower is almost finished, put remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft and slightly translucent, about 5 to 7 minutes.
Add garlic, turmeric, cumin, salt, pepper and nutmeg, and cook for an additional minute.
Stir in 1 1/2 cups broth, coconut milk, and roasted cauliflower. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes, until cauliflower very tender and flavors have had a chance to meld.
Transfer to blender container and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste and add additional broth as needed for desired consistency. Serve with your choice of garnish.
