How to make healthy broccoli soup
In a heavy bottom pan add a diced potato, chopped onions, garlic, ginger, salt and 2 cups of water.
Boil all the ingredients for about 10-15 minutes.
Now add 2 cups of broccoli florets and if you need more water just add 1/2 cup of water and let it cook for another 2 minutes.
Note: If you roast the broccoli in butter it gives a nice flavour and taste.
Check the vegetables if they are cooked well.
Now off the flame and keep aside to cool.
Take another pan and add 1 cup of milk, 1 teaspoon of cornflour and 1 teaspoon of butter.
Now turn on the flame and stir continuously.
When the milk thickens, add salt and pepper as required and stir for another 2 minutes.
Off the flame.
In a food processor pulse all the vegetables with vegetable stock in a coarse puree.
Pour this puree into the prepared white sauce and mix it well.
Boil for 3-4 minutes. If the puree thickens too much, add water into it.
Off the flame and add 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
Serve hot soup.
