Method
- Before cooking, measure these ingredients: 500 g broccoli and 200 g cooked white beans. Set out the remaining ingredients, cookware and utensils so everything is ready.
- Cut broccoli into florets and peel and chop the stem. Dice the onion.
- Gently sauté onion and garlic, add broccoli, beans and stock. Simmer for 15 minutes.
- Blend until creamy, stir in lemon juice and serve.
- Before serving, check: Check the largest piece with a fork before blending: it should break easily. Use a stick blender in a pan that is not filled to the brim to avoid splashes.

- Check the largest piece with a fork before blending: it should break easily. Use a stick blender in a pan that is not filled to the brim to avoid splashes.
- If too thick, stir in a little hot water. If too thin, simmer gently uncovered for a few minutes. Adjust the liquid gradually.
