Ingredients

  • 2 large broccolis (600g)
  • 2 cups vegetable broth (500ml)
  • 1 bulb garlic
  • 1/4-1/2 cup water
  • 1 hand full broccoli sprouts
  • 1 cup cooked corn kernels
  • salt

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 400 F (200°C).
  • Peel off the paper-like outer layer of the garlic bulb, leaving intact the skins of the individual cloves and being careful to keep the bulb as a whole.
  • Cut the top part of the garlic in order to expose the upper part of every clove and drizzle a few drops of olive oil onto each clove.
  • Place garlic bulb in cocotte or other small ovenproof dish and cover (with lid or aluminum foil).
  • Roast for approximately 40 minutes or until soft like warm butter.
  • Take a 15-minute nap.
  • Now, wash broccoli and peel the stem with a vegetable peeler.
  • Cut the stem into about 1/2" (1 cm) rounds and set aside.
  • Cut the rest in florets and set aside.
  • Heat a 2 cups of vegetable broth over medium heat. Salt if necessary.
  • Once hot, add broccoli stem round and reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and let simmer for approximately 5 minutes.
  • Then add the florets and cover again and let simmer for another 10-ish minutes or until florets and stem are very soft. Use a fork to verify. Make sure to always keep the pot covered or else all the broth will evaporate.
  • Add soft cooked broccoli and broth plus roasted garlic cloves to a blender and blend on high for quite a while until very very smooth and silky. You might have to add 1/4-1/2 cup of water depending on how much power your blender has.
  • Taste for saltiness and adjust.
  • Add corn kernels to soup and serve.
  • Decorate with broccoli sprouts and extra corn kernels.
