I made this potato soup for a family get-together and people were scraping the bottom of the pot. It is very good and easy to put together. I used milk to keep it more healthy, but I'm sure the half-and-half would make it even better.

Creamy soup that's still vegan! It can be a cream of broccoli, cream of asparagus, or peas depending on the vegetable you choose. Will try this later this week, but it sounds terrific and I'm sure I'll love it. One of my favorite meals is soup with bread and our yummy hummus. From The Best of Silver Hills Delicious Vegetarian Cuisine cookbook. Update: This is our new favorite vegan broccoli soup! I'm excited to try it with the asparagus next time. Enjoy!

CREAMY VEGETABLE SOUP



Creamy vegetable soup image

Main ingredients are potatoes, onions and kale leaves but highly adaptable to other vegetables like courgette, cauliflower, carrot and peas.

Provided by BleakEyE

Time 45m

Yield Serves 5

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 tablespoons of butter
1 large onion or some spring onions with half an onion
3 large peeled potatoes roughly chopped
ca 1.8 L vegetable or chicken broth (diluted and saltiness tasted on your own)
ca 0.7 L chopped kale leaves
A few cauliflower florets chopped into small pieces
Half or a whole courgette chopped into triangle chunks
ca 0.5 L milk
Pepper (and salt) to taste

Steps:

  • In a large pot (over 2.5 L), add 1.8 L broth, courgette and cauliflower then heat up to boil for 5-10 mins. Then add the kale leaves into the pot boil until they are softened and turned into dark green colour. Keep the pot warm by a small flame.
  • Heat the butter in a non-stick pan over medium high heat. Add the potato and onion, sauté until they have golden brown colour, sprinkle come pepper.
  • Put the sautéed potato and onion into the pot and swirl. **If you have leftover meatballs, you can also put them in. But for chicken breast strips, better cook them separately and add them in the pot after blending.
  • Use a heavy-duty blender (cup shaped or the bar) to break all the solid ingredients into shreds until no more chunks and smooth. Add 0.5 L milk and blend again. Taste and add more pepper/salt if needed then blend once again.
  • Main tip is keeping the pot warm with a flame underneath the pot and preferably use a bar shaped blender to blend directly at the same time. This soup is adaptable to other vegetables like carrots and peas. Make up your own idea to explore the best taste.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, seasonal vegetables: This will ensure the best flavor and texture in your soup.
