Serves 3–4
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1⁄2 tablespoon curry powder
1⁄2 teaspoon paprika
1⁄4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
21⁄2 pounds broccoli, chopped
3 cups vegetable broth
1 teaspoon raw organic honey
1⁄2 teaspoon salt
1⁄2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup coconut milk
- Heat olive oil over medium heat in a large stock pot. Add chopped onion, garlic, curry powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper and sauté for about 6–7 minutes. Add broccoli, and turn heat up to medium-high. Add broth (only enough to cover all the vegetables), honey, salt, and pepper, and bring to a boil. Lower to a simmer for about 10 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
- Turn off heat and allow to cool slightly. Add coconut milk, and use an immersion blender to mix all ingredients to a smooth consistency. Once the desired consistency is reached, turn heat up to medium to heat through. Serve warm.
