The Amazing Low Carb Broccoli And Cheese Soup Recipe
My Low Carb Cooking fever is at its peak now. I might go cranky someday and will try to find net carbs in water or my supplements too..sigh !
I am sharing with you Low Carb Broccoli and Cheese soup Recipe.
I don’t wish to admit but I just dislike Broccoli. So I try to find ways to make it a little more tolerable to my taste buds ? . I like steamed broccoli though in my salad since the sauces mask its taste ?
Let’s jump to the recipe.
Ingredients
-
Broccoli – Half head medium sized
-
Onion – 1 large
-
Ginger – tiny winy ?
-
Salt and Red Chilli powder
-
Gouda Cheese – 20-50 gms as per your taste
-
Vinegar – optional
-
Milk/Cream – optional
-
Desi Ghee- 2 TSP
-
Butter – 1 tsp
Serves : 3-4
Method
1.First,chop broccoli into florets and steam it. You could do it in a microwave or on gas in a container of boiling water.
2. Chop 1 large onion into pieces ideal for sauteing.
3. In a pan, pour 2 TSP Ghee and let it get heated.
4. Add minced ginger and chopped onions to the pan. When onions start turning a little brown, add salt and steamed broccoli florets. Cook for 10 minutes.
5. Empty the contents of the pan in a blender. Add little water and blend. Blend till you get a smooth puree.
6. Add little butter in the same pan that you used earlier. Add the puree and red chili and bring it to boil. Add water to get the soup-like consistency.
7. Simmer it for 10 minutes.
8. Serve. Add little butter if you wish ?
I loved the cheesy broccoli flavor but it’s a little bland for my taste despite adding red chili. So, I added 4-5 drops of vinegar, loved the taste ? !
You too try the soup ! Let me know what variations you did to the recipe ?
