Ingredients

• 4 tbsp butter
• 1 onion, diced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• ¼ cup all-purpose flour
• 2 cup whole milk
• 2 cup vegetable or chicken stock
• 4 cup broccoli florets, chopped small
• 1 cup carrot, grated
• 2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• ½ tsp black pepper

Steps

1. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Cook the onion until soft, about 4 minutes, then add the garlic for 1 minute.
2. Whisk in the flour and cook 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.
3. Whisk in the milk and stock a little at a time until smooth. Bring to a gentle simmer.
4. Add the broccoli and carrot. Simmer 12–15 minutes until the broccoli is tender.
5. Take the pot off the heat. Stir in the cheddar a handful at a time until melted and smooth.
6. Season with salt and pepper and serve hot.
