Ingredients
- ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced (about 1 cup)
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- ¼ cup (31 g) all-purpose flour
- 3 cups (720 g) chicken broth
- 2 cups (490 g) whole milk, room temperature
- 1 head broccoli, chopped (about 3¼ cups florets)
- 1 cup carrots, shredded (about 2 carrots)
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
- ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
- 4 cups (452 g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
Instructions
- In a large pot over medium heat, melt the butter.
- Add onions and cook until softened (about 8-10 minutes). Add garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and stir together until lightly browned (about 5 minutes).
- Slowly pour in the chicken broth and milk, stirring constantly, until no flour lumps remain.
- Add the broccoli, carrots, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Bring the mixture to a simmer, and cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the broccoli and carrots are tender (24-26 minutes).
- Reduce heat to low, and slowly stir in the cheese one cup at a time, fully melting the cheese between each addition.
- Remove from heat and serve.
