Broccoli Cheddar Soup - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves
2 bunches broccoli
water
2 chicken bouillon cubes
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
10 ounces broccoli cheese soup
12 ounces evaporated milk
1/2 cup cream
Preparation
-
Melt butter in pot.
Add olive oil, onion, and garlic and saute until onion is tender.
Don't only use the florets skin the stalks and add them too -- they're great!
Add broccoli and water and bullion to barely cover the broccoli.
Bring to boil and cook until broccoli is al dente (which means \"to the tooth\" easy to bite through but still has firmness). About 10 minutes.
If you like it smooth puree all or part in a blender or stick blenders work great!
Add can of Campbell's Broccoli cheese.
Add a slurry of 1/4 c flour and evaporated milk. and check that it's thick as you like. -- if not thick enough, add 2T of flour for each quart of water.
Add cheese, salt, pepper, and other seasonings (like the curry, jakesoup jerk) to taste.
Finish with heavy cream to taste but you may no longer boil.
Like any soup it taste better the longer it sets so, fix it early if you can, but it's great fresh too.
