Simplest Broccoli Soup

This is not cream of broccoli soup but rather soup in its purest form. I love the flavor of broccoli and love to eat it in salads or stir fry just as it is.


So this soup is the perfect way to have broccoli if you are a fan of broccoli like I am. This soup is creamier without any cream and tastes delicious with just salt and pepper.

Give it a try and let me know if you any suggestions or comments down below. Happy Cooking Everyone!!!!!



Ingredients:

1 broccoli head - separated into florets
4 cups water
salt and pepper to taste
slice of goat cheese - cut into small pieces

Recipe:

1. Take water in a deep saucepan and boil over high heat. Once it starts to boil, lower the heat to medium and add broccoli florets. Cover the lid. Boil for 4-5 minutes or until knife pierce the floret easily.
Note: Do not over boil the broccoli else it will loose its color and you will not get that perfect green you are looking for.

2. Once boiled, strain the broccoli florets.


Note: Do not throw away the water. It will be used while pureeing.


3. Puree the floret when hot and use the water in which you boiled the florets for pureeing. Add enough water so that you get a creamy puree. Do not over add it else it will be watery. After pureeing, add it to a pan over low-medium heat.
4. Add salt and pepper to taste. Heat it for 2 minutes. Serve hot with goat cheese on top.
