Description
Tim Perry’s Soup, also known as creamy curry cauliflower and broccoli soup, is a comforting, flavorful dish with a mild curry taste and a creamy cheddar broth. It’s a perfect balance of hearty vegetables and warm spices, ideal for cozy family meals or impressing guests.
Ingredients
1 quart chicken broth
1 onion, finely chopped
1 head cauliflower, finely chopped
½ head broccoli, finely chopped
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 tablespoon chicken bouillon granules
Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
¼ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup milk
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
Instructions
- In a stockpot, combine the chicken broth, onion, cauliflower, and broccoli. Bring the mixture to a boil and then reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer until the vegetables are tender.
- Season the soup with curry powder, chicken bouillon granules, salt, and pepper to taste.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour and ½ cup of milk until smooth, ensuring there are no lumps.
- Slowly add the flour mixture to the simmering soup, stirring continuously as the soup thickens.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and continue to cook until the cheese is fully melted and the soup reaches a creamy consistency.
Notes
- For a vegetarian version, substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth.
- For a vegan option, use plant-based milk and dairy-free cheese.
- For extra spice, add more curry powder or a pinch of cayenne pepper.
- If you prefer a creamier texture, mash some of the cauliflower and broccoli after cooking.
- This soup can be frozen for up to 3 months, though the texture may change slightly after reheating due to the cheese.
