  • 1 onion
  • 2 heads of broccoli
  • 1 potato
  • 1 litre vegetable or chicken stock

  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over a medium heat. Peel and roughly chop the onion. Add to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes, until starting to soften.

  • Pour in the stock. Chop the rest of the broccoli into small florets and add to the pan. Cook for 15-20 minutes until the broccoli is soft.
  • Use a stick blender to blend the soup until smooth. Add the cheese and cream: stir. Taste to check the seasoning and add salt and pepper as needed.
