Love Soup with Pistachio Dukkah

This year I felt like making a little food contribution on V-day so I cooked a red soup with cute and tasty toppings on. Unfortunately my kids rated this soup as “One of the worst soups they have ever eaten!” so that was kind of a bummer. But don’t listen to them. Your Valentine’s date hopefully will have better taste than my kids. Because this is a good and simple little number with creamy cauliflower and potatoes, earthy beetroots and tasty spices. I serve it with sauerkraut and a generous drizzle of pistachio dukkah on top. Cook this soup for someone you like. Make sure to top it with lots of dukkah. And don’t let your kids try it.
This is a vegan soup but you could add a little cream or plant based cream if you want to make it extra round and creamy (maybe my kids would have liked it more then).
