Asparagus Soup
Ingredients:
12 oz bunch of asparagus
3 cups vegetable bouillon
1/4 cup butter
1 onion, chopped
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp ground coriander
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 cups milk
4-6 tbsp heavy cream
salt and pepper
This dish was kind of complicated to prepare since it involves cooking ingredients separately in 3 different pans and has a 55 minute prep time. Wish I’d made the asparagus stems bigger instead of chopping them all up. Also I should have kept a few more out for garnishes. Still, it turned out surprisingly well. It’s probably the least healthy dish I’ve cooked, given the milk, butter, and heavy cream.
3 out of 4 spoons
Bonus: Layered fruit and yogurt parfait, topped with chopped cashews for dessert. Delicious!
