Certainly! Here's a recipe for a delicious vegetarian broccoli soup
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 cups broccoli florets
1 medium potato, peeled and diced
4 cups vegetable broth
1 cup milk or non-dairy milk (such as almond milk or oat milk)
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional toppings: grated cheese, croutons, or chopped fresh herbs
Instructions:
In a large pot, melt the butter or heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets and diced potato to the pot. Stir and cook for a few minutes to lightly sauté the vegetables.
Pour in the vegetable broth, ensuring that the broth covers the vegetables. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the pot and let it cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the broccoli and potato are tender.
Once the vegetables are cooked, use an immersion blender or transfer the mixture to a blender to puree the soup until smooth. Be cautious when blending hot liquids, allowing them to cool slightly if using a countertop blender.
Return the pureed soup to the pot if necessary. Stir in the milk and heat the soup over low heat until warmed through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
If the soup is too thick, you can add additional vegetable broth or milk to achieve your desired consistency.
Once the soup is heated and seasoned, ladle it into bowls. Garnish with optional toppings such as grated cheese, croutons, or chopped fresh herbs like parsley or chives.
Serve the vegetarian broccoli soup immediately while it's hot. It pairs well with crusty bread or a side salad.
Enjoy the comforting and nutritious goodness of your homemade vegetarian broccoli soup!
