Broccoli, Chickpea and Root Vegetable Soup image

If you cannot get a celeriac or have never used it and don't feel adventurous enough to try a new vegetable, please use a different root vegetable, such as sweet potato, parsnip, rutabaga, or turnip.

Time 40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 celeriac, peeled and cut into small chunks
1 stem broccoli, cut into florets
2 carrots, peeled and cut into small chunks
1 inch-length ginger, peeled and sliced thin
vegetable stock (enough to barely cover vegetables in the pan)
1 teaspoon curry powder (optional)
2 (15 ounce) cans cooked chickpeas, rinsed (or homemade chickpeas)

Steps:

  • In a large pan, place all the vegetables and add vegetable stock or water and vegetable cubes to the level that barely covers the vegetables.
  • Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cook until all the vegetables are tender. (If you have a pressure cooker, cook about 8 minutes under pressure and use a natural releasing method.).
  • Use a hand blender, blender or food processor to purée the soup.
  • Add curry powder (optional). Add salt if necessary (I didn't use any.).
  • Add chickpeas.
  • Infuse love and serve!
