Cooking process

Coconut milk is a remarkable vegetable replacement for fat cream when cooking some lean dishes or in vegetarian cuisine. Soups with coconut milk are not inferior to their creamy prototypes, if not to say that they exceed them in taste, thanks to a special nutty flavor. This lean cream soup of broccoli is a good example of this kind of recipe.

At 500 gr. broccoli can take 150-300 gr. potatoes and about 500 ml of water. Coconut milk is added, in fact, to taste. Shrimp – in general, an optional component, they are seasoning on a row with salt, soup is good without them, just with them it is a bit more interesting.

We clean the potato, cut it finely, fill it with water so that it is completely covered, and put it on a strong fire.

Broccoli cuts only the coarsest part of the stem, which is fibrous. All the rest can be safely floated, torn to pieces and remove naked fragments of stems under cream soup makes no sense.

Cook the vegetables under the lid on medium or high heat until the potatoes are ready (soft).
