Time 45m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons butter
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 small potatoes, thinly sliced
2 cups fresh chopped broccoli
1 ½ cups chicken broth
¼ teaspoon salt
ground black pepper to taste
½ cup heavy whipping cream

Steps:

  • Melt butter in pan, do not brown. Add vegetables, toss to coat with butter, then press parchment paper on top of vegetables--this is called "sweating"-- for better flavor. Put lid on pan and simmer very gently until vegetables have softened. Do not brown.
  • Remove paper, add chicken stock, bring to a boil, then simmer until vegetables are soft.
  • Put in blender and puree until smooth. Pour back in pan, add salt, pepper, and cream. Simmer gently, do not boil or cream will curdle, until heated through.

I'm not a huge fan of broccoli, but I actually really enjoyed this soup! The cheese and cream mellow out the flavor of the broccoli, and the soup is very creamy and comforting. I'll definitely be making this again.

I tried this recipe last week and it was a disaster! The soup was watery and bland, and the broccoli was overcooked. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

This soup is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. The flavor is a bit bland and the texture is a bit watery. I think it could be improved with some additional seasoning and maybe some cheese.

My partner and I love this recipe! It's incredibly easy to make and it always turns out delicious. We usually add a bit of extra cheese and sometimes some cooked chicken or bacon. It's the perfect comfort food for a cold night.
