Soupe au brocoli et aux pommes de terre

---

Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the Vegetables

1. Start by chopping your broccoli into florets, removing any tough stems. Set the florets aside.
2. Peel and dice your potatoes into small cubes, ensuring they cook evenly.
3. Chop the onion and garlic.

2️⃣ Cook the Vegetables

1. In a large pot, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat.
2. Add the onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened and translucent.
3. Stir in the garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

3️⃣ Add the Broccoli and Potatoes

1. Add the potatoes and broccoli florets to the pot.
2. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring everything to a simmer.
3. Cook for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes and broccoli are tender when pierced with a fork.

4️⃣ Blend the Soup

1. Once the vegetables are tender, use an immersion blender directly in the pot to purée the soup until smooth and creamy.
   • If you prefer a chunkier texture, blend only half of the soup and leave the rest as is.
   • Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until smooth.
2. After blending, return the soup to the pot and stir in the milk (or cream for extra richness).
3. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5️⃣ Final Touches & Serve

1. Let the soup simmer for another 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
2. Once done, remove from heat and serve hot.
3. Garnish with fresh parsley or chives to add a burst of color and flavor.

• For a creamier soup, use cream instead of milk, or add a spoonful of sour cream when serving.
• Add a sprinkle of cheese, such as grated Parmesan or Gruyère, on top for extra richness and flavor.
• If you want to make the soup heartier, you can add some cooked bacon or croutons as a topping.
• For a more vibrant green color, reserve a few broccoli florets before blending and add them back in for texture.
