Roasted Red Pepper Curry Soup with Spinach and Chrispy Cauliflower Florets

When fall is around, my mind starts clicking and all I can think of is comforting, warm soups and stews. Since Curries are one of our all-time favorites because all of us just love it so much, I thought of making a soup out it.

And after I created this soup, I felt something was missing. A soup without anything crunchy was too boring for me. Yes, that is when those crispy cauliflowr florets find their way to my curry soup and I cannot even tell you, how good this combo is.

Those Chrispy Cauliflower Florets

We eat them as a snack, in soups, curries and with pretty much everything. I used to hate cauliflower as a kid, when it was overcooked and really soft but now I am a huge fan of oven baked cauliflower.
