- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 large head of cauliflower chopped
- 2 cups cooked chicken shredded

Instructions
- Prepare the Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
- Add Spices: Stir in the turmeric and cumin, allowing the spices to toast for about 1 minute to release their flavors.

- Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve hot and enjoy!
