Creamy vegetable soup

I have just gotten a gorgeous head of cauliflower from my mom which was hiding in the fridge and starring at me every time I opened the door. The garden is full of fresh, brightly colored and healthy carrots. I also found some peas home, so it was not too difficult to decide for making a soup. It's fall anyway, it feels so good to have some warm soup.

Ingredients:

  • 1 smaller head of cauliflower
  • 3 carrots
  • 3 hands full of green peas
  • 1 Tbsp. oil
  • 1 litre vegetable stock (or water mixed with vegetable stock cube)
  • 200ml (cooking) cream
  • salt
  • ground white pepper
  • pinch of ground cumin
  • pinch of ground nutmeg
Directions:

Cut and wash cauliflower. Preheat oil in a large sauce pan and sauté the cauliflower pieces on it. Add salt, pepper, cumin and nutmeg and pour vegetable stock over it. Let it cook for about 10 minutes. 
In the meanwhile: wash, peel and slice them in a roll cut. Add to the soup and cook until it's almost done/tender. Then add green peas (it gets cooked really quick so make sure the other vegetables are already almost completely tender, otherwise you overcook it!).  
Stir in cream and heat through. Serve hot.
