Ingredients
 

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion peeled & minced
  • 1 clove garlic peeled & minced
  • 2 (300 g) potatoes cubed
  • 2 cups (480 ml) vegetable broth
  • ½ cup (90 g) broccoli florets finely chopped
  • ½ cup (120 ml) plant-based milk see notes
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast optional
  • ½ tbsp lemon juice
  • black pepper & salt to taste

Instructions
 

  • Wash the potatoes thoroughly and chop in ½-1 inch cubes.
  • Heat a large pot with olive oil. Add the onion and garlic and saute for 3 minutes.
  • Add the potatoes and vegetable broth, pop on the lid, and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Blend the soup until smooth using a blender or immersion blender.
  • Add broccoli florets and plant-based milk and let it simmer for another 5 minutes.
  • Season with nutritional yeast, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.

Notes

  • Creamy Soup Variation: If you prefer this soup altogether creamy, blend until smooth after step 5.
  • Potatoes: You don't need to peel them if using organic potatoes, but make sure to wash them thoroughly.
  • Broccoli: Make sure to chop them very finely. I find it a bit cumbersome to eat this soup if the broccoli comes in too large pieces.
  • Nutritional Yeast: Adds a slightly cheesy flavor and thickens the soup a little. Omit if you don't have it at hand.
  • Plant-based milk: Any dairy-free milk works well for this recipe. Simply use the one you have in your fridge anyway. I used oat milk.
  • Make-Ahead: Keeps fresh for 3 days. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  • Freeze: Can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw it directly in a pot over medium heat.
