How to make cauliflower soup with crispy dried tomato toast:
Cauliflower soup:
Peel and chop the onion. Heat the pot with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the onion let cook.
Next, eel the potato and cut it. Add it to the pot, add salt and pepper to taste and let it cook for 3 minutes, stirring from time to time.
Cut and rinse the cauliflower. Add the cauliflower, milk and water to the pot. The amount of water is indicative, since it will depend on how big your cauliflower and potatoes are, as well as how thick you like the soup. I personally like that the liquid is at the same height in the pot as the vegetables.
Season to taste, add a pinch of fresh oregano and let cook over medium heat for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
After this time, and when you check that the vegetables are cooked, blend well until you get a smooth soup.
Crispy dried tomato toast:
In the bowl of the mixer, add the walnuts, poppy seeds, chia, rice flour and oats. Chop well, until you get powder. Put it to a bowl and add the olive oil and water, knead until a homogeneous. If necessary, you can add a little more water, but in small quantities.
Place the dough between two sheets of baking paper and stretch with a roller until you get a thin sheet.
Bake it for 15 minutes with a preheated oven to 150ºC (300ºF). Remove from the oven and cut the portions with a sharp knife before it cools. Once cold, it will become very crispy, and you can’t chop it.
To finish the toast, place the drained tomatoes in the mixer and chop well. Put a portion on the toast and top with grated cured cheese and fresh oregano leaves.
Serve before the soup cools.
