Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the cauliflower and onions on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper. Give everything a good mix so the spices coat the veggies evenly. Roast them in the oven for about 25 minutes, until the cauliflower is nicely browned but still has a bit of bite.

Step 2
While the veggies are roasting, melt some butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Add the garlic and cook it gently until it smells amazing, about 3 minutes. Stir in the potatoes and turmeric, then pour in the stock. Turn the heat up to medium, bring it to a simmer, cover, and let it cook until the potatoes are tender—around 10 minutes.

Step 3
Once the roasted cauliflower and onions are done, scoop out about a cup and set it aside for later. Add the rest to the pot with the potatoes, give everything a stir, and let it simmer for another 5 minutes so the flavors come together.

While the stew is simmering, toast the almonds in a dry pan over low heat. Keep stirring them until they turn golden and fragrant, which should take about 3 to 5 minutes.

Finally, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until it’s smooth and creamy. Taste it and adjust the seasoning if you need to. Serve the stew in bowls, top with the reserved roasted cauliflower, and sprinkle the toasted almonds over the top for a nice crunch.
