Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add leeks and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in pepper, salt, and coriander.
Step 2
Reserve about 1/4 cup of the smallest broccoli florets. Add remaining broccoli to the leeks and cook until bright green, about 5 minutes. Pour in chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until broccoli is very tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 3
Puree soup with an immersion blender until smooth. Stir in reserved broccoli florets and bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, stirring often. Simmer until broccoli is tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
Step 4
Remove from the heat and stir in evaporated milk. Serve hot.
