Broccoli And Aged Cheddar Soup - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 diced onions
8 cups broccoli
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 tablespoons butter
8 cups vegetable stock
1 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 cups aged cheddar cheese, grated
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup sherry wine
1/2 cup parsley
salt and pepper

Preparation

Warm butter and olive oil in a large pot. Add broccoli (chopped into small piece) and onions and saute for a few minutes.
Add the vegetable stock and and simmer until the broccoli is cooked (20-30mins).
Pour into a blender and puree. I like it a little chunky so I do a quick puree.
Return to pot and add the Worcestershire sauce, heavy cream and cheddar, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Simmer on low for 15-20 minutes.
Stir in sherry and parsley and remove from heat. Garnish with Sprig of parsley and any remaining crumbled aged cheddar!
