Ingredients

  • 1 head cauliflower, cut into florets

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 teaspoons curry powder, or more to taste

  • 2 teaspoons mustard seeds

  • 5 tablespoons butter, divided

  • ⅓ cup chopped sweet onion

  • 6 cups chicken broth

  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 1 cup milk

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Combine cauliflower, olive oil, curry powder, and mustard seeds in a baking pan; toss to coat cauliflower.

  3. Bake in the preheated oven until cauliflower begins to brown, 35 to 40 minutes.

  4. Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir onion until softened, 5 to 10 minutes. Add chicken broth and cauliflower to onion; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer.

  5. Combine 3 tablespoons butter and flour in a small saucepan over medium-low heat; cook and stir until roux is thickened and slightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add milk to roux and continue cooking and stirring until thickened, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir roux into soup until smooth; season with salt and pepper.

Cook's Note:

The cauliflower can be roasted and refrigerated up to 2 days ahead.

Half-and-half can be substituted for the milk, if desired.
