Vitamin E Soup
By Linda
Makes 2 portions
Ingredients and amounts
- 225 g broccoli, cut into florets
- 50 g small leaf spinach
- 20g flaked almonds
- 1 tsp corn or canola oil
- 50g onion, finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
Instructions and comments
1. Sauté onion and garlic very gently in oil till soft.
2. Add broccoli and 20 floz (2 and a half cups) water, and bring to the boil. Simmer 10-12 minutes until the broccoli is done. Season as preferred – I like freshly ground black pepper.
3. Now puree the soup using either a food processor or liquidiser or a stick blender. At this point the soup could be frozen if you want.
4. To serve, divide the hot soup between 2 bowls. Shred the spinach and simply drop it into the soup and stir. The heat will wilt it and it will need no additional cooking, adding both body and a slight crunch to the texture.
5. Sprinkle the top with flaked almonds and serve.
