I make almost all of my soups with vegetable stock, but this one works really well with water. The spices are so intense that you don't need the richness of stock. —Ordinary Blogger (Rivki Locker)

What You'll Need
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 1/8 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/8 ground cinnamon
  • 1 16 oz. bag frozen cauliflower, defrosted
  • 1 potato, peeled and cubed

Directions
  1. In a medium pot, heat the oil and then saute the onion for a few minutes, till softening. Add the garlic, celery, carrot, salt and spices. Saute for about 5 minutes, mixing frequently, until the vegetables are soft and letting off wonderful aromas.
