Indulge in a velvety cauliflower and broccoli soup, garnished with crunchy curried chickpeas.
Ingredients:
  • 40g butter
  • 1 leek, pale section only, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 800g broccoli, cut into florets
  • 500g cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1l mixed vegetables
  • 125ml thickened cream
  • 9.20 gm olive oil
  • 400g can chickpeas, rinsed, drained
  • 1.25 gm curry powder
  • 2.40 gm sea salt flakes
  • 40.00 ml flat-leaf parsley, chopped
Instructions:
  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter until it shimmers. Saute the leek and garlic until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the broccoli and cauliflower, stir occasionally, and cook until starting to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour the stock and 3/4 cup (185ml) of water into the pot and bring to a gentle simmer. Let it bubble away, uncovered, for about 5 minutes or until the veggies are nice and soft. Use a stick blender to make the mixture silky smooth. Gently swirl in half of the cream, then season generously with sea salt.
  • Heat oil in a medium frying pan over medium-high heat. Sauté chickpeas for 5 minutes until crisp. Stir in curry powder and salt and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Garnish the soup with chickpeas and parsley before serving.
