BOUILLON
For all of the soups served at SOUPER I, use this bouillon recipe. We suggest you to make it a day ahead.
Ingredients
1 leek
1 big carrot
1 big onion
1/2 small celery root
4 cloves of garlic
1/2 chili pepper
750 ml water
salt to taste
Chop up the vegetables, garlic and chili in big pieces. Add them to a large pot and cover with the water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and let it simmer for an hour. Let it cool completely. The next day, strain out the vegetables and add salt to taste.
DEVILED EGGS
Ingredients cauliflower soup
1 small cauliflower, washed and chopped into pieces
375 ml bouillon
250 ml water
pepper and salt to taste
Ingredients coconut curry egg yolk
1 can of full fat coconut milk, refrigerated overnight
1 to 2 tsp madras curry powder
Add the cauliflower, bouillon and water to a big pot and slowly bring to a boil. When the cauliflower is tender, blend everything in a high speed blender until perfectly creamy. Add pepper and salt to taste.
Open the can of coconut milk and scoop out the hardened part of coconut cream. Place the thickened cream into a chilled mixing bowl and beat with a mixer until creamy for about a minute. Add the curry powder and mix until it is fully incorporated.
