Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broccoli

    Wash and cut the broccoli into small florets. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Make the Roux

    Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed vegetables and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to form a roux.

  4. 4

    Add Broth and Milk

    Slowly whisk in the vegetable broth and milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Bring to a simmer.

  5. 5

    Add Broccoli

    Add the broccoli florets to the pot. Simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender.

  6. 6

    Blend and Add Cheese

    Use an immersion blender to purée the soup to your desired consistency. Stir in the grated cheddar cheese until melted and smooth.

  7. 7

    Season and Serve

    Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve hot.
