Equipment
- soup pot
- high-speed blender
Ingredients
Vegetables
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter can be substituted with olive oil for vegan
- 2.5 medium yellow onions peeled
- 2-3 medium waxy potatoes
- 5 medium carrots peeled
- 2 teaspoons fine grain sea salt
- 6 cloves garlic peeled and sliced
- 5.5 cups vegetable broth
- 3 cups broccoli florets and stems
- 1 unit lemon juice of
Instructions
Cooking Steps
- Chop the onions, potatoes, and carrots into (roughly) 1-inch pieces.
- Heat the olive oil and butter in a large soup pot over medium-high. Add the onions and salt, stir to coat. Cover and cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally until onions soften completely. Add the garlic, and cook for another minute or so. Add the potatoes and carrots along with the broth. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer.
- After 5 minutes of simmering add the broccoli and boil another 7-10 minutes or so. You want everything to be tender. I always test the potato and broccoli. Remove from heat.
- Blend the mixture in a high-speed blender (in batches) or using an immersion blender. Be careful, it's hot. If the soup is thicker than you like, add more hot water or broth at this point. Season the soup well to your liking with more salt, if needed, and the lemon juice. Enjoy!
