Ingredients

• 300 grams Broccoli florets
• 300 grams Cauliflower florets
• 1 medium Zucchini, diced
• 2 units Garlic cloves, minced
• 100 ml Heavy cream
• 30 grams Unsalted butter
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 50 grams Grated Parmesan cheese
• 500 ml Chicken or vegetable broth
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing all the vegetables. Wash the broccoli and cauliflower, and then separate them into florets. Dice the zucchini into small, evenly sized pieces.

Step 2

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and gently sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the broccoli and cauliflower florets along with the diced zucchini to the pot. Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth.

Step 4

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the pot and cook for about 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and easily pierced with a fork.

Step 5

Once the vegetables are cooked, remove the pot from the heat. Use an immersion blender to puree the vegetables directly in the pot until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the vegetables and some broth to a countertop blender and blend until smooth, then return to the pot.

Step 6

Place the pot back on low heat, and stir in the heavy cream and butter until well combined and melted.

Step 7

Season the puree with salt and black pepper. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 8

Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until it melts and is fully incorporated into the mixture.

Step 9

Serve the creamy vegetable puree hot, garnished with additional grated Parmesan if desired.
