Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 head Broccoli
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black pepper (optional)
  • ¼ cup Cheddar cheese (mature, grated)

Instruction

  • Wash the broccoli then cut it up to pieces or small florets.
  • Heat water up add salt, black pepper and any other optional seasoning. Place the broccoli into the seasoned boiling water or above it into the steamer.
  • Cook until tender for about 3 - 4 minutes. It doesn't need to be too soft just enough to be easily cut or broken.
  • When it's done take the broccoli out from the water or steamer but don't discard the water. Puree the broccoli with a hand blander or mixer. Add about a half cup seasoned cooking or steaming water to the broccoli and mix it.
  • Add the grated cheese then blend into the broccoli.
  • The cheese will thicken the soup a bit up therefore if we are after a thinner consistency add more water and blend it well. Serve it with a bit of cheese on top.
