What is Garlic broccoli soup?
Garlic broccoli soup is a simple vegetable soup made by simmering broccoli with garlic, then blending it smooth or leaving some texture. It is a flexible home-cooked dish rather than a recipe tied to one particular place; onion, stock or herbs are often added, while broccoli remains the main ingredient.
Its mellow, green flavour is lifted by the savoury bite of garlic. Serve it as a light lunch or a starter, with crusty bread, or alongside a sandwich for a more substantial meal. It is low in calories and provides fibre and vitamin C. For a lighter bowl, skip the cream and let the blended broccoli give the soup body; a squeeze of lemon can brighten the flavour.
