Prep time
15 mins
Ingredients
- Turmeric: 3cm/1in piece fresh turmeric root, peeled and grated, or 1/2 tsp ground turmeric
- Garlic Clove: 2 garlic cloves, sliced
- Courgette: 200g courgettes, roughly sliced
- Parsley: small pack parsley, roughly chopped, reserving a few whole leaves to serve
- Lime: 1 lime, zested and juiced
- Kale: 100g kale, chopped
- Sunflower Oil: 1 tbsp sunflower oil
- Broccoli: 85g broccoli
- Ginger: thumb-sized piece ginger, sliced
- Salt: pinch of pink Himalayan salt
- Ground Coriander: 1/2 tsp ground coriander
- Stock: 500ml stock, made by mixing 1 tbsp bouillon powder and boiling water in a jug
Directions
- Put the oil in a deep pan, add the garlic, ginger, coriander, turmeric and salt, fry on a medium heat for 2 mins, then add 3 tbsp water to give a bit more moisture to the spices.
- Add the courgettes, making sure you mix well to coat the slices in all the spices, and continue cooking for 3 mins. Add 400ml stock and leave to simmer for 3 mins.
- Add the broccoli, kale and lime juice with the rest of the stock. Leave to cook again for another 3-4 mins until all the vegetables are soft.
- Take off the heat and add the chopped parsley. Pour everything into a blender and blend on high speed until smooth. It will be a beautiful green with bits of dark speckled through (which is the kale). Garnish with lime zest and parsley.
