Vegan Broccoli and Almond Soup Instructions

  1. Begin by washing the broccoli heads and cutting them into small florets.
  2. Take your almonds and set a handful aside for garnishing later.
  3. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  4. Add the diced onion, stirring occasionally, until it becomes translucent. This should take about 5 minutes.
  5. Introduce the minced garlic and stir for another 2 minutes until it’s aromatic.
  6. It’s time to toss in the broccoli florets and the remaining almonds.
  7. Pour in the vegetable stock, ensuring the broccoli is submerged. If needed, add a bit of water.
  8. Season with salt and pepper.
  9. Bring this mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes or until the broccoli is tender.
  10. Using a blender, puree the soup in batches until it’s smooth.
  11. Return the soup to the pot and stir in the almond milk, warming it up for another 5 minutes. Ensure it doesn’t boil.
  12. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

Tips

  1. For added creaminess, soak the almonds in water overnight and blend them to create an almond paste. You can mix this paste into the soup.
  2. If the soup is too thick for your liking, you can always dilute it with a little extra vegetable stock or water.
  3. Don’t rush the sautéing process. Allowing the onions and garlic to cook properly will elevate the soup’s flavor profile.

Serving Suggestions

  1. Ladle the Vegan Broccoli and Almond Soup into bowls.
  2. Garnish with the handful of almonds you set aside. These can be roughly chopped or whole, depending on your preference.
  3. Serve with crusty bread or a light salad for a complete meal.
  4. Drizzle a tiny bit of olive oil or almond milk on top for a finishing touch.
  5. If you’re in the mood for some heat, sprinkle a pinch of red chili flakes on top.
