Cream Of Cabbage Soup
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 leeks, white and pale green parts only, chopped
- 1 large carrot, chopped
- 5 cups chopped cabbage
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 cup stewed or roasted tomatoes (which is what I used), chopped
- 2 cups cooked chick peas
- 5 cups vegetable or chicken broth
- 1 1/2 cups 2% milk
- 1/4 cup fresh dill, minced
- salt and pepper to taste
- To a large frying pan over medium heat, add olive oil, leeks, carrot, garlic and cabbage. Cook until vegetables are soft, using the addition of some broth if the pan gets too dry. Add tomatoes. Give this mixture a few grinds of pepper and sea salt to taste.
- In a large saucepan, combine chickpeas, broth and 2 cups of the cooked cabbage mixture. Use a stick blender to puree this mixture until smooth. Add milk and stir to combine. Gradually increase heat to simmer. Add remaining cabbage mixture and the dill, season with more salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with more dill if desired.
