Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Rinse the broccoli thoroughly under cold water.
- Cut the broccoli into small florets and set aside.
- In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil.
- Add a pinch of salt to the boiling water for flavor.
- Add the broccoli florets to the boiling water and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender but still vibrant green.
- Drain the broccoli and set aside.
- In a blender or food processor, combine the cooked broccoli, coconut milk, salt, black pepper, and ground nutmeg.
- Blend until smooth and creamy. You may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your blender.
- If the soup is too thick, you can add a little water or vegetable broth to reach your desired consistency.
- Pour the blended soup back into the pot.
- Heat over medium heat until warmed through, stirring occasionally.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, pepper, or nutmeg to your preference.
- Ladle the soup into bowls.
- Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of extra black pepper, a dash of nutmeg, or a drizzle of coconut milk.
- Serve hot and enjoy your detoxifying and delicious broccoli coconut soup!
Tips:
- Fresh Broccoli: Use fresh broccoli for the best flavor and nutrients. If using frozen broccoli, make sure to thaw it completely before cooking.
- Coconut Milk: Opt for full-fat coconut milk to achieve a rich and creamy consistency. Light coconut milk can be used for a lower calorie option, but the soup will be less creamy.
- Blending: Blend the soup until smooth for a velvety texture. If you prefer a chunkier consistency, blend only half of the soup and leave the rest chunky.
- Seasoning: Adjust the seasoning to your taste. Add more black pepper for a spicier kick or additional salt if needed.
- Garnishing: Garnish the soup with a drizzle of coconut milk, a sprinkle of freshly ground black pepper, or a few broccoli florets for added texture and visual appeal.
With just a handful of ingredients, this detox broccoli coconut soup can be whipped up in no time, providing a nourishing and comforting dish. Enjoy the delightful fusion of broccoli, coconut milk, and spices, and take a step towards a healthier you.
