Description
A simple low FODMAP broccoli soup with only 5 ingredients. Super simple to make. Gluten-free, lactose-free and vegan.
Ingredients
Scale
- 500 g (17.6 oz) broccoli heads
- 1 liter (4 cups) stock (use a low FODMAP stock cube or stock powder)
- 1/2 red chili pepper
- 2 stalks of spring onion, the green part
- A splash of coconut milk for cooking (or lactose-free crème fraîche, the latter is not vegan)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: fried bacon for serving
Instructions
- Cut the heads off of the broccoli. Only use the heads and not the stalks because broccoli stalks are higher in FODMAPs.
- Cut the red chili pepper into small pieces and remove the seeds.
- Heat some oil in the soup pan and fry the red pepper for 2-3 minutes on low heat.
- Add 1 liter of water to a soup pan. Add the broccoli, and stock cubes, and bring to a boil.
- Lower the heat and leave to simmer for 10-15 minutes.
- Use an immersion blender to make it into a smooth soup.
- Taste the soup and season with salt and pepper.
- Divide the soup over 4 bowls. Add a splash of coconut milk to each bowl.
- Cut the green part of the spring onion into rings and garnish the soup with them.
- Optionally: add some fried bacon as a topping
