BROCCOLI / BRIE SOUP RECIPE - (3.3/5)

Steps:

• 1. Add one quarter of the broccoli to a food processor, and run the machine until the broccoli is very finely chopped. Remove the chopped broccoli to a large bowl, and repeat 3 more times until all the broccoli is finely chopped. Set aside. 2. In a large soup pot with a lid, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onions, and season lightly with salt. Sweat, stirring often, over medium heat for 2 minutes, until the onions are just softened and fragrant. 3. Add the broccoli and garlic to the onions. Season with salt and pepper. Lower heat to low to medium-low, and cook covered for 5 minutes. 4. Remove the lid from the pot, and stir in 2 tablespoons flour, until well distributed. Cook 1 to 2 minutes, just to remove the raw flour taste, stirring continuously. 5. Add the chicken stock and the milk. Raise the heat to high until the liquid boils. Immediately reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer 15 minutes. The broccoli should be completely cooked, and the soup slightly thickened. 6. Cut the rind off the brie, and cut the brie into small chunks. Add the brie and cream to the pot. Cover, and cook over the lowest heat for just 2 minutes to melt the cheese. Use a whisk to incorporate the melted cheese into the soup. Serve immediately.

CREAMY BROCCOLI SOUP

Steps:

• Cut off the broccoli stems, then cut the stems into 1-inch-thick slices. Separate the florets into small pieces. Reserve the stems and florets separately.
• Heat a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high and add the olive oil. Stir in the onion, carrot, tomato, sweet potato and the broccoli stems, spread in an even layer and season generously with salt and pepper. Let the vegetables on the bottom sear without stirring until lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Add the garlic powder and stir with a wooden spoon to hydrate the spice in the fat and continue cooking for another minute or so. The tomato will start to break down and get jammy.
• Add the coconut water, raise the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Cover, lower the heat to keep the soup at a gentle boil and continue cooking until all of the vegetables are mostly softened and the stock is imbued with savory flavor, about 10 minutes. For a creamier texture, remove the broccoli stems to snack on or discard; for more broccoli flavor (and roughage), leave the stems in.
• Stir in the broccoli florets and tofu, raise the heat to high and bring the soup to a boil. Cover and cook until a paring knife easily cuts the stem part of a broccoli floret, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Carefully ladle the contents of the pot into a blender and blend until smooth. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed, then add more coconut water or water to thin out the soup to your desired thickness.
• Serve hot in shallow bowls, each serving dolloped with a spoonful of fridge-cold ricotta, if using, and lightly drizzled with extra-virgin olive oil and sprinkled with herbs, if desired.

LEEK & BROCCOLI SOUP WITH CHEESY SCONES

Steps:

• Tip the leeks, potatoes and garlic into a large pan with the bouillon. Pour over 800ml boiling water, stir well, cover and simmer for 15 mins.
• Add the broccoli to the pan, then cover and cook for 5 mins more until just tender. Blitz with a hand blender until smooth, then pour in the milk and blitz again. Add a little stock if the soup looks too thick.
• To make the scones, heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and line a baking tray with baking parchment. Put the flour and baking powder in a bowl with the all but 1 tbsp of the parmesan and all the mustard powder. Gradually add the milk and oil, stirring with a cutlery knife until the mixture comes together. Shape into a log, about 16cm long and 6cm wide, and press the remaining parmesan on top. Cut in half along the length, then halve each of those pieces again to create four wedge-like scones. Arrange the scones on the tray and bake for 10-12 mins until golden.
• If you're following the Healthy Diet Plan, reserve two of the scones for another day. Will keep covered for up to three days. Halve the remaining two and top with half the goat's cheese and half the tomato. Ladle half the soup into two bowls and serve with the scones. The remaining soup will keep chilled for up to three days.
