Ingredients
Scale
- 120g (4.2oz, almost 1 cup) frozen green peas
- 40g (1.4oz, ½ cup) chopped leek
- 45g (1.6oz, 1 small) potato, cut into smaller cubes
- 80g (2.8oz, 1 large) carrot, cut into smaller cubes
- 100g (3.5oz) broccoli
- 50g (1.8oz, 3 cups chopped) kale
- 1½ tsp. broth powder
- ½–1 tsp. garlic powder
- Himalayan salt or Black pepper to taste
- Enough water for desired consistency
Instructions
- First, bring half a kettleful of water to boil.
- Then, throw frozen peas, chopped leek, carrot, potatoes, broth powder and garlic powder into small pot. Add enough hot water to cover (about 350g, 12.3oz) and bring to boil. Simmer for 5 minutes.
- Next, chop kale and cut broccoli florets into smaller pieces. When the 5 minutes is up, add broccoli and kale to the soup. Pour in some hot water as well (just enough to cover) and simmer for another 5 minutes.
- Let the soup cool a bit and puree using regular or immersion blender. Add water if necessary. Feel free to leave it chunky to have something to chew on.
- Season with black pepper and Himalayan salt (if your broth powder was unsalted).
- Finally, garnish with a tablespoon of nutritional yeast, a handful of alfalfa sprouts, a sprinkle of sesame seeds and some mint leaves, parsley or cilantro (optional). You also may add a splash of coconut milk.
