Cream of Broccoli Soup is a healthy and delicious dish that enriches the fresh, slightly bitter taste of broccoli with a silky, creamy texture. The broccoli is typically cooked with garlic, onion, and a little creamy milk, then blended to create a rich, thick soup. Cream of broccoli soup is not only delicious, but also extremely nutritious, as broccoli is full of vitamins and minerals that have beneficial effects on our health. We can serve it with a little grated cheese or spicy oil on toast to make it even more delicious.
This soup is an ideal choice for those who want to eat a light but nutritious meal.
Cut the broccoli into smaller florets and rinse thoroughly.
Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Sauté the finely chopped onion and garlic until softened and fragrant.
Add the broccoli and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer and cook over medium heat for 15-20 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender.
Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the heavy cream, salt, and pepper to taste. Add a pinch of nutmeg.
Bring the soup to a gentle simmer. Serve hot, garnished with croutons or grated cheese.
