Broccoli and Stilton Soup

 This was quite tasty - even though I don't like Stilton - made 1/2 for 2 of us



  • 800 g (1.7 lb) Broccoli , Fresh or frozen
  • 1 potato
  • 1 stick celery
  • 1 Onion, Peeled and chopped
  • 2 Garlic cloves, Peeled and crushed
  • 750 ml (3.25 cups) Stock
  • 160 g (6 oz) Stilton cheese, Grated or crumbled
  • Optional Milk to make more creamy

1.                 Wash and chop the broccoli into large chunks. Chop potato and celery, finely slice your onion and crush the garlic. (If you’re using frozen, simply put everything in the pan.)

2.                 Put the broccoli, potato, onions, garlic, stock and plenty of salt and pepper into a large saucepan.

3.                 Bring to the boil with the lid on and simmer for 15 minutes or until the vegetables are just cooked through.

4.                 Remove from the heat. Add the milk and Stilton and blend until smooth.

5.                 Heat through again before serving
