Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups fresh broccoli florets
- 2 medium potatoes, peeled and diced (about 1.5 cups)
- 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 cups low-sodium vegetable stock
- 1 cup heavy cream (or half-and-half for a lighter version)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook until golden.
- Add chopped broccoli and diced potatoes to the pot, stirring for about 2 minutes to coat with the aromatics.
- Pour in vegetable stock until vegetables are covered. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce to a simmer for about 15 minutes until tender.
- Remove from heat and use an immersion blender to purée the soup until smooth. If using a regular blender, blend in batches.
- Stir in heavy cream gradually, adjusting seasoning with salt and pepper as desired.
- Ladle into bowls, garnish with extra broccoli or croutons if preferred, and serve hot alongside crusty bread.
