Tip

If you'd like the soup to be a thicker consitency then sit the simmering basket on the lid instead of the MC during cooking.

It's the fresh parsley and basil that really set this broccoli soup apart from the rest. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do tmrc_emoticons.)

  • I have just made this Broccoli Soup and it tastes...

    Submitted by bananarama on 17. July 2017 - 17:09.

    I have just made this Broccoli Soup and it tastes beautiful. I hate broccoli but I know it's good for you so I usually make Broccoli Tots. Now I have this soup, I will be making it more often. Instead of using olive oil, I tried Azalea Cuisine Asian inspired cooking oil flavoured with ginger, garlic, sesame oil and peanut oil. I added a good grinding of black pepper a teaspoon of salt and chicken stock paste. Happy with the thickness and how creamy it is without cream added.

  • Did not try original recipe

    Submitted by MVF on 8. December 2015 - 15:48.

    Did not try original recipe due to lack of ingredients and noticing people mention theirs was runny. I made enough for three bowls. 1 whole large brocolli head, 20g olive oil, half a large onion instead of leek, same herbs but dry so I added a table spoon of each and 700 grams of water. That was all I changed and followed the rest of the recipe without cream . Perfect for lunch today thankyou Garnsey!

    Submitted by Jammquinn on 18. May 2015 - 12:07.

    This soup turned out very watery for me, and I followed the recipe precisely, including using the steamer basket for a thicker soup. I'm not sure what went wrong. I added some cornflour at the end to thicken and will probably fry some diced bacon and add before serving next time. And maybe use a bit less water?

  • We had this soup for dinner

    Submitted by Belly on 24. October 2013 - 23:36.

    We had this soup for dinner tonight. Family loved it. By the time I added the broccoli plus stem, it was a bit above the max line so I took half out, puree'd it, then did the other half. I added 2 good tbsp of concentrated vege stock & salt & pepper. Sprinkled parmesean cheese over top, family went back for seconds. Cheers

    Submitted by navzkore on 15. July 2013 - 18:10.

    I found that my thermomix was quite full once I added the 2 heads of broccoli so after it was done tipped half of it out and pureed the other half left in it and served that, then put the unpureed half back in and pureed it for leftovers. Other than that, tasty soup, my only addition was a bit of white pepper and some truffle oil on top for a bit of decadence Big Smile

  • Thumbs up from this house

    Submitted by Ros Teirney on 1. June 2013 - 18:06.

    Thumbs up from this house too.,  My tweak was to add broccoli stalks in with the potato.  Also I did not bother with reverse as I whizzed it all up at the end as instructed so preferred the veges chopped as they cooked.  Very nice served with Recipe Community Poato Bread toasted.  Mmm.  Thank you.
