I've been looking for more good soup recipes, and got this yummy recipe from Shelley Million. It's very easy to make, and has an earthy, yummy taste from the cumin and turmeric. The version below is just slightly adapted, including adding a small bit of onion. Ingredients 2 T oil 1 T cumin seed 1 head cabbage, chopped 1/2 small onion, chopped 2 potatoes, chopped (optional) 2-4 cloves garlic, diced 2 tsp turmeric 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp black pepper 4 C vegetable broth 1/2 C cashew cream or coconut milk Instructions Saute cumin seed and onion in oil for a couple of minutes. Add chopped cabbage (and potato, if using) and saute for 10 minutes until the cabbage is soft. Add garlic, turmeric, salt, and pepper, and saute a couple more minutes. Add broth. Boil, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Turn off heat and add coconut milk. Use an immersion blender to blend until smooth. Serve!
