Broccoli Soup

Step 1

In a medium pan over medium-low heat, heat the oil (or water). Add the onion and garlic, and sauté for 5 minutes or until the onion becomes tender and translucent.

Step 2

Add the water and bouillon cubes (or broth), potatoes, broccoli, lemon juice, and pepper.

Step 3

Bring to a boil.

Step 4

Boil until the potatoes are cooked all the way through, 10 to 15 minutes.

Step 5

Remove from the heat. Puree half of the soup using an immersion blender (or with a regular blender, working in batches). Return the pureed soup to the pot and combine with the remaining soup.
