Broccoli Bisque Recipe
Yield: 8 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
1 1/4 lbs: Broccoli, (fresh), trimmed and cut up (okay to use more)
4 cup: Chicken broth, 2 cans of canned broth, or use fresh stock
1 medium: Onion,
2 tbsp: Butter,
1 tsp: Salt,
2 tsp: Curry powder, or less
1 dash: Pepper,
2 tbsp: Lime juice,
8: Lemon slices,, optional
1/2 cup: Sour cream,
1 tbsp: Chives, snipped, optional
Directions:
Place the cut broccoli in a large saucepan along with the broth,
onion, butter, salt, curry powder and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce
heat and simmer, covered, for 8 to 12 minutes or until broccoli is
just tender.
Place about 1 1/2 to 2 cups of the mixture at a time into a blender
container. Cover and blend until smooth. Pour into bowl or another
large pan. Repeat with remaining mixture. BE CAREFUL. THE HOT LIQUID
MAY SCALD YOU. Stir in the lime juice.
Now you can either cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours to serve
cold (great in warm weather), or you can go right ahead and serve it
hot (great in cold weather). Once ladled out, you can garnish with a
thin slice of lemon, a small dollop or sour cream, and a sprinkling
of chives.
NOTES:
* A broccoli soup (hot or cold) -- This recipe is from my mom. Its
been a hit every time she or I have served it. It is rather spicy -
not for the timid or faint-of-heart.
* You can refrigerate unused portions for serving later, but it
doesnt keep well for long. I like to blend it pretty well, so that
the texture is quite smooth. Some people like it a little chunkier.
: Difficulty: easy.
: Time: 45 minutes.
: Precision: approximate measurement OK.
