Dairy-Free Celery Soup
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp ghee
- 8 celery stalks rinsed and diced
- 1 small onion diced
- 1 leek rinsed, white and light green parts diced
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 4 cups Kettle & Fire Chicken Cooking Broth
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 cup canned full-fat coconut milk (only the hard white part at the top of the can)
Garnish
- celery leaves fresh black pepper
Instructions
-
In a Dutch oven or stockpot, heat the oil over medium heat.
-
Add in celery, onion, and leek. Sauté for 10 minutes.
-
Add in garlic, and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
-
Add the cooking broth and salt. Increase heat to high, and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to low, and simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.
-
Turn off heat, add in coconut milk, and mix thoroughly.
-
Gently pour soup into a blender to purée (don’t fill more than halfway at a time), or use an immersion blender. Only blend until creamy. *If using a blender, be careful since soup will be hot! I recommend holding the blender lid down with a towel!*
-
Pour puréed soup back into the pot. Reheat if necessary.
-
Add garnish and serve immediately.
