Broccoli and kale soup with garlic and coconut



Serves 4
 
Ingredients

2 heads of broccoli, cut into florets, keep the stalks too
1 bunch kale, washed and roughly chopped
As much garlic as you like, I used about 10 peeled cloves, leave whole
1 brown onion, roughly chopped
1 litre of vegetable or chicken stock
½ cup of coconut milk or cream

Method
Cook the onion and garlic in some olive oil for 2 minutes then add everything except the kale and coconut. Bring to the boil, turn down and simmer for 7 minutes, then add the kale and simmer for a further 3 minutes until the vegetable are tender. Blend up with a stick blender until smooth, add the coconut milk and season well with salt and pepper.

  1. Ive got the black russian kale but I noticed there are other kinds of kale. Was just wondering about whether they have distinctive flavours that would affect recipes?

    1. You can use any kale, they are quite similar in taste
