Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 Onion diced
- 1 rib Celery diced
- 270 g Potato diced
- 1 head Broccoli
- 1 litre Vegetable stock
- 100 g Stilton crumbled
Instructions
- Heat 2 tablespoon Olive oil in a large pan and add 1 Onion. Cook on low for 3 minutes.
- Add 1 rib Celery and 270 g Potato and continue cooking for 4 minutes.
- Add 1 head Broccoli and 1 litre Vegetable stock and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Crumble in 100 g Stilton
- Blend until smooth.
Notes
- You may need to add a little bit more stock to the soup after blending, depending on the consistency that you want. If you have cooked the soup on too high a heat, then it will need more stock otherwise it will be very thick. But, you might like it that way.
- Make this soup even more indulgent by adding some chopped chopped bacon on top at the same time as the cream and extra Stilton.
- You could add some cauliflower too to use a mixture of vegetables.
- Top with some toasted seeds to add some crunch.
- Use a stick blender to blend this soup. If you are going to use a jug blender, make sure it cools down first, as putting hot soup in can cause it to explode.
- If you are making this soup for young children, then use a low salt stock.
