Instructions to make Easy green vegetable lemongrass soup #vegan #vegetarian #gluten-free #paleo:
Chop up all vegetables for the soup. You will add them to the water in order of 'hardness' as not to overcook softer vegetables.
Put Ghee or olive oil in a pan and saute onion / shallots and garlic on medium fire, stirring the entire time. Cook until onion / shallots become clear, but not brow. Add leak and ginger (if fresh) and saute for another 3-4 minutes.
Add vegetable stock and 'hard' vegetables - carrots, broccoli stems, peas, etc + any vegetables that are frozen.
Add all the spices and herbs, with the exception of fresh parsley.
Cook on low-medium fire until the hardest vegetable (eg carrot) is soft enough to pierce with a fork but still crunchy. Add medium hard vegetables, such as broccoli, Kale, asparagus. Note: Asparagus stems need to cook longer than asparagus tips. Cook for 3-4 few minutes and then add zucchini. Cook until broccoli can be pierced with a fork. Add more water if required throughout cooking.
Add spinach and cook until it wilts - should not be more than 2 minutes so that it stays green. This adds wonderful green colour to the soup. Note: if using frozen spinach, add it at the same time as zucchini.
Turn off the heat and let it cool to room temperature.
Combine the cooked ingredients in the blender with a generous amount of fresh parsley and purée until desired consistency.
Garnish with sprouts, seeds, or flaked almonds. You can also add a tablespoon or two of cooked quinoa for a filling full-meal.
The soup freezes extremely well so you can apportion it to desired quantities and take out during the week. (you may need to add water once heated up)
