2 large (240 g) carrot (peeled & diced)

2 cups broccoli florets chopped

1 tbsp olive oil

2 tbsp gluten free all purpose flour

3 cup (625 ml) water

Istruzioni

Prep the ham, leek leaves, potato and carrot. Measure out the sweet corn.

Place a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the dairy free spread or butter and fry the leek leaves and carrot for 3 minutes until the carrot starts to soften.

Then add the potato, ham and garlic infused oil. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring every now and then to stop the vegetables sticking to the bottom.

Mix through the flour and cook for a further minute. Then pour the stock into the saucepan. Mix well and bring to the boil. Allow to cook for 12 minutes, stirring every couple of minutes, until the potatoes are tender.

Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the milk, sweet corn and dried chives. Stir over the heat until thickened - this will take about 5 minutes.

Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed.

Serve warm and garnish with a sprinkle of parsley if desired.

If at any point your soup becomes too thick just stir through another splash of milk.
