Krem z Brokułów (Polish Cream of Broccoli Soup)

Method

1. 1

   Melt the butter in a large pot and soften the onion, about 5 minutes.

2. 2

   Add the potato, broccoli and garlic, pour in the stock, and bring to a boil.

3. 3

   Reduce to a simmer and cook until the potato and broccoli are fully soft, about 15 minutes.

4. 4

   Meanwhile, toast the cubed bread in a dry pan over medium heat, stirring, until golden croutons form, about 4 minutes.

5. 5

   Blend the soup smooth with an immersion blender, then stir in the milk and warm through gently without boiling.

   💡 Boiling after the milk goes in can turn the soup grainy — keep it just below a simmer.

6. 6

   Season with salt and pepper and serve topped with the croutons.
