Description
A creamy and delicious Keto Choclo Soup (Corn-Free Version) made with fresh vegetables and coconut cream.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 1 medium shallot, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium yellow squash, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, chopped
- 1 ½ cups broccoli florets
- 5 cups vegetable stock
- 1 teaspoon coriander
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 1 cup grated mozzarella cheese
- Chopped green onions, for garnish
Instructions
- In a large saucepan, warm the avocado oil over medium heat. Add the chopped shallot and sauté until it becomes soft and translucent, about 4 minutes.
- Incorporate the minced garlic and cook for another minute, allowing the aroma to fill the kitchen.
- Introduce the diced yellow squash and red bell pepper, stirring occasionally for about 6 minutes until they soften.
- Next, add the broccoli florets, vegetable stock, coriander, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer for 20 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender.
- Once cooked, use a blender to puree the soup until it reaches a velvety consistency. If you don’t have a blender, you can use a potato masher for a chunkier texture.
- Return the pureed soup to the heat and mix in the coconut cream and grated mozzarella cheese. Stir gently until the cheese has melted and the soup is warmed through.
- Adjust the seasoning to your liking, then serve hot, topped with chopped green onions for a fresh finish.
Notes
- For an extra protein boost, mix in some cooked quinoa or diced tofu before serving.
- If you enjoy a kick, toss in some crushed red pepper flakes during the cooking process for added heat.
