CABERA'S WINTER GREEN SOUP

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil

• 1 medium onion finely chopped

• 1 large leek trimmed and halved, white parts thinly sliced

• 0.5 teaspoon sea salt plus more to taste

• 1 teaspoon dried thyme plus more to taste

• 1 package of Cabera Organic Frozen Brussels Sprouts (300g)

• 1 package of Cabera Organic Frozen Broccoli Florets (300g)

• 1 package of Cabera Organic Frozen Cauliflower Florets (300g)

• 1l vegetable stock

• 1 small bunch parsley roughly chopped

• black pepper to taste

Serve with (optional)

• sour cream or creme fraiche or a vegan alternative

• cashews roughly chopped

• fresh herbs such as parsley and chives

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large saucepan set over medium heat. Add onions and cook for 1 minute, stirring occasionally. Then stir in leeks, salt and thyme and cook for 3-5 minutes, until the leeks soften.

2. Add Cabera's frozen vegetables straight from the bag as is. Mix with the leeks and let vegetables cook and sizzle for about a minute. Pour over the vegetable stock, just until all the vegetables are mostly covered. Set temperature to high heat to bring soup to a boil, then lower heat to medium and cover the pot with a lid.

3. Cook (maintaining a simmer) until the vegetables are tender, around 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove soup from heat, toss in the parsley and keep covered for a few minutes.

4. Using an immersion blender, blend the soup until it's completely smooth (you can also puree it in 2-4 batches by using a food processor.) Once pureed, taste the soup and adjust the seasonings to your taste.

5. Ladle soup into bowls and garnish as desired.

   ENJOY!
