Cream of Celery Soup (dairy-free)
Cream of Celery Soup (dairy-free) is a smooth, blended vegetable soup made by sautéing celery, onion, leek, and garlic, then simmering in chicken or vegetable stock before blending with coconut milk. The result is a creamy, flavorful soup with a fresh celery aroma, garnished with celery leaves, black pepper, and paprika for an added touch of color and spice.
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 onion diced, medium
- 1 leek cleaned, with white and light green parts diced
- 8 talks celery diced
- 3 garlic minced, cloves
- 4 cups chicken stock or vegetable stock
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/3 cup coconut milk full-fat
Garnish
- celery leaf
- black pepper
- paprika
Instructions
- Heat the oil in large pot on medium heat. Add the diced onion, leek and celery and sauté for 10 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté another minute or two, until fragrant.
- Add the stock and salt to the pot. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Simmer for 20 minutes.
- Remove the soup from the heat and add the coconut milk. Use an immersion blender to blend the soup, making it as creamy or chunky as you'd like. Alternatively, you can transfer the soup in batches to a high-powered blender to blend until creamy.
- Serve the soup and garnish with celery leaves and a sprinkle of black pepper and paprika.
