Making the broccoli feta soup recipe
- To start, prep all the ingredients before starting.
- In a pot on medium high heat, add a little oil then sauté the onions and garlic. Cook until they have started to brown and are fragrant.
- Now add in the potatoes, broccoli and lastly the chicken broth. Bring to a boil then lower to a simmer and cover the pot. Cook for 15 minutes until the potatoes are fork tender. Yes, you will over cook the broccoli, but it’ll make the soup smoother.
- Next, using an immersion blender, blend the soup until smooth. Or, carefully add the soup into a blender but be careful removing the lid. Allow the top to release steam before snatching the lid off. Pour it back into the pot.
- In the pot add the heavy cream, butter, feta, chili powder, and the apple cider vinegar or lemon juice. Stir everything until combined then add salt and pepper to taste.
- The soup is ready to be served.
