CURRIED CAULIFLOWER & CHICKPEA SOUP

Steps:

• In a soup pot on medium heat, cook the onions in the oil for a few minutes, until they begin to soften. Add the ginger, curry powder, and salt and sauté for a minute or two, stirring constantly so the spices don't burn. Add the chickpeas and the water, cover, and bring to a boil.
• Meanwhile, cut the cauliflower into bite-sized pieces (about 4 cups). When the water boils, stir in the cauliflower and tomatoes, reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until the cauliflower is tender, about 5 minutes.
• When the cauliflower is done, remove the pot from the heat. Purée 2 or 3 cups of the soup in a blender and stir it back into the pot. Top each bowl of soup with a large spoonful of chutney and a sprig of cilantro.
