Scale

4 cups broccoli florets

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, chopped

Start by washing the broccoli florets, ensuring they are cut into bite-sized pieces.

Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onions and garlic, and sauté until fragrant, 5-7 minutes.

Introduce the broccoli florets to the pot, and pour in the vegetable broth. Bring to boil, then simmer for 10 minutes.

Use an immersion blender to puree the soup to your desired consistency. Swirl in heavy cream for added creaminess.

Garnish with Parmesan crisps for a delightful crunch.
