Cauliflower and Coconut Soup with Honey and Spice Chickpeas

Heat the oil in a large sauté pan and add the onion, potatoes garlic and all the spices. Season generously, cover and cook over a gentle heat until the vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally and adding a splash of water to prevent it catching on the base of the pan.

Add the cauliflower and the stock. Bring to the boil then reduce the heat and simmer until everything is tender.

Add the coconut cream and bring just below the boil.

Roughly puree the soup with an immersion blender, leaving some of it quite chunky.

To serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and drizzle with a little coconut cream and a spoonful of the spiced chickpeas. Garnish with fresh mint leaves. 

Honey and Spice Chickpeas

Whisk the oil, honey and harissa together in a bowl, then stir in the chickpeas to coat well.

Place a sauté pan over a medium heat and add the chickpeas, scraping in the oil mixture left in the bowl.

Cook until golden and fragrant, stirring occasionally so they don’t catch and burn. Add the coconut and cook for 1–2 minutes until golden, stirring constantly.

Tip into a bowl and sprinkle with a little sea salt.
