Broccoli And Kale Green Soup Recipes

BROCCOLI AND KALE GREEN SOUP

Steps:

• Put the oil in a deep pan, add the garlic, ginger, coriander, turmeric and salt, fry on a medium heat for 2 mins, then add 3 tbsp water to give a bit more moisture to the spices.
• Add the courgettes, making sure you mix well to coat the slices in all the spices, and continue cooking for 3 mins. Add 400ml stock and leave to simmer for 3 mins.
• Add the broccoli, kale and lime juice with the rest of the stock. Leave to cook again for another 3-4 mins until all the vegetables are soft.
• Take off the heat and add the chopped parsley. Pour everything into a blender and blend on high speed until smooth. It will be a beautiful green with bits of dark speckled through (which is the kale). Garnish with lime zest and parsley.

KALE AND BROCCOLI SOUP

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the potato, cayenne, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring, until the potatoes are well coated, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the broth and 1 cup of water and bring to a simmer.
• Add the broccoli and simmer until the potatoes and broccoli are tender, about 15 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to maintain a simmer. Stir in the kale and continue to cook until the kale is tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, and let cool at least 5 minutes. Carefully puree until smooth with a handheld immersion blender or in 2 to 3 batches in a blender (do not fill blender more than halfway full).
• Reheat the soup if necessary. Off the heat, swirl in the butter until it is melted. Adjust the consistency with water and seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
• Serve hot sprinkled with croutons and grated Pecorino.
