Broccoli Soup

This simple soup was surprisingly easy and tasty, I didn't have stock on hand but it still had lots of flavor. 

Ingredients:

• two crowns of broccoli chopped
• 2 cloves of garlic chopped
• one celery stalk chopped
• 1/2 a red onion chopped
• one teaspoon mixed French or Italian herbs and 1/4 teaspoon chipotle pepper.
• salt and pepper to taste
• a handful of chopped fresh cilantro.
• a knob of butter

Method:

1. sauté onions, garlic and celery in a little olive oil then add a little butter 
2. add the herbs and chipotle pepper
3. add the cilantro and broccoli and water about 4 cups just enough to cover the broccoli
4. turn down to a simmer for 20-25 min until soft, add salt and pepper to taste and blend. 
5. enjoy
