American Soup

Ingredients

1 tbsp olive oil
1 clove garlic peeled and coarsely chopped
½ small onion peeled and diced
1 small carrot cut into rounds
½ tsp paprika preferably smoked
½ tsp ground coriander
1 small head broccoli (about 250g florets)
Pinch of salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste

Accompaniment

Method

1
In a medium pan, heat the oil on medium. Fry the garlic, onion, carrot and spices for 3-5 minutes until soft.

Trim and coarsely chop the broccoli, add to the pan along with a litre of water and simmer, covered, on low, for 15 minutes (until broccoli is soft).

Uncover and cool for 5-10 minutes before blending. Place in a blender (reserve a few florets for decoration, if you wish) and purée until creamy, taking care to hold the lid on firmly. Season with salt and pepper and reheat as necessary.
