I know iam boring you all with soups. The Climate here in chennai is chill and we need soup's to warm us. so bare with me. Whenever i find broccoli in the vegetable shop, i buy it. so far bought it thrice, once i made kootu with it and kuruma the other time, now its soup. its a versatile veggie, an healthy green veggie too. Coming to the soup. its a easy one.
Ingredients:
Broccoli Florets - 1 cup (handfull of florets + 3)
Red Onion - 1
Garlic Cloves - 3
Oil - 1 tbsp
Milk - 1/4 cup
Pepper Powder - 1 tsp's
Method:
Cut the Broccoli into small florets. wash them thoroughly twice atleast.
Heat a Pan, add oil & heat it. Now add the Garlic and saute it for a min. then add the onion and saute it till it turns translucent. then add the broccoli florets to the pan and saute it for atleast 4 minutes, till the broccoli turn tender. switch off the flame and let the pan contents cool.
After Cooling, blend all the ingredients in the pan with 1/4 cup milk into a smooth puree.
Now Heat the Puree and add little water, to get the desired soup consistency of your choice.
Add salt and pepper powder according to your taste.
Serve warm with Garlic Breads or Bread sticks.
