Cauliflower and Carrot Soup

[Tarah]

After reading mixalot's post about the cream of cauliflower soup and with some cauliflower and carrots in my fridge, I decided to make this raw soup.

Name of Recipe: Cauliflower and Carrot Soup

Number of People: 1

Ingredients:
160g cauliflower
100g carrot
20g olive oil
20g lemon juice – half a lemon
375g water
Dash or two of shoyu sauce
Dribble of honey

Preparation:
The ingredients were processed in the Thermomix bowl for 20 seconds on speed 8. Then the mix was warmed to 37 degs C for 4 minutes on speed 1 and poured over some avocado chunks with some shallots added on top.

Tips/Hints:
I enjoyed eating this. The carrot is sweet enough to help produce a good result. Next time I'll try just the cauliflower, carrot and water poured over the avocado as I believe that this will taste nice without the extras.

Thanks Tarah.  I like eating raw cauliflower - even the stalks    Sounds like a good combination with the carrot.  But I know MrsT won't be interested if it is not cooked

Thanks Thermomixer. I think Mrs T is not alone in preferring cooked food and sometimes I prefer cooked to raw soups. But it feels like there's something to eating more raw food. I'm the same with cauliflower - when I'm steaming some vegetables a fair amount of cauliflower gets munched rather than ending up in the Thermomix bowl.
