GREEN CREAM OF BROCCOLI SOUP
INGREDIENTS
- 3 cups broccoli, cut into small pieces
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
- 4 cups of chicken stock or vegetable stock
- 1 medium potato, peeled and diced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Grated cheese (optional, for sprinkling)
PREPARATION METHOD
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter (or heat the olive oil) over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic and sauté until soft and fragrant.
- Add the broccoli and potatoes to the pan. Sauté for a few more minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Pour the chicken stock (or vegetable stock) into the pan and bring the mixture to the boil. Reduce the heat, cover the pan and simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
- Use an immersion blender to blend the vegetables in the pot until smooth. If you don't have an immersion blender, you can transfer the soup to a traditional blender in batches, but be careful of the hot steam.
- Return the soup to the pan and add the cream. Stir well to incorporate. Heat the soup over a low heat, but don't let it boil after adding the cream.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the green cream of broccoli soup hot, with grated cheese on top, if desired.
This soup is creamy, comforting and full of flavor. It's a great way to enjoy broccoli and warm up on colder days. Enjoy!
