Time 45m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 teaspoon olive oil
3/4 cup onion, diced
3 cups chicken broth, homemade or canned (low-sodium)
1/4 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 large potato, peeled and quartered
1/2 head Savoy cabbage, cored and cut into 2-inch chunks
3 tablespoons heavy cream
1/2 pound smoked ham, cut into 1/4-inch cubes
1 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 small sourdough baguette, cut across into 1/8-inch thick slices
1/4 pound Roquefort cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • To make the soup, heat the olive oil in a large saucepan. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth, caraway seeds, potato and cabbage and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until the cabbage and potato are soft, about 25 minutes. Scrape the mixture into a blender and blend until smooth. Return the puree to the pan and stir in the cream, ham, salt and pepper. Warm the soup over low heat.
  • To make the croutons, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place the bread slices on a baking sheet and cover each slice with crumbled Roquefort. Bake until croutons are crisp and the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Ladle the soup into 4 bowls and top each with 3 croutons. Serve immediately, passing remaining croutons separately.

The soup was too thin for my taste. I'm going to add less broth next time.

I didn't like the texture of the cabbage. I think I'll chop it up smaller next time.

I think this soup would be even better if you added some diced carrots.

I made this soup in my slow cooker and it turned out great! I just threw all of the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning and dinner was ready when I got home from work.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover ham. It's also very affordable to make. I was able to make a big pot of soup for less than $10.

I'm not a big fan of cabbage, but I really enjoyed this soup. The cabbage was cooked perfectly and the flavors were very well-balanced. The Roquefort croutons were a nice touch and added a lot of flavor to the soup.
