- Heat a tablespoon of butter or any other kind of fat that you like to add flavor to the soup.
- Add one roughly chopped small onion, garlic, and broccoli stalks and fry until it starts to get some color or when the onions have caramelized.
- Season with Himalayan 1 tsp pink salt, 1 tsp black pepper, and 1 tsp parsley.
- You could also add some paprika, cayenne pepper or your favorite seasoning.
- After about 5 minutes add vegetable stock.
- Simmer for further 5 minutes then transfer into a blender.
- Blend until thick and set aside.
- Using the same saucepan and add a tablespoon of butter and cook the broccoli florets for 5 minutes stirring continuously.
- Once the broccoli florets have cooked, pour out the pureed soup that was blended and add 1 ¼ cups or 300ml heavy cream.
- Stir and add one tsp of xantham gum, and 3 cups of your favorite grated cheddar cheese stirring non-stop.
- Let it cook until the cheese has melted and it's all one delicious creamy mixture then serve
