Creamy Broccoli Soup that is made with Milk can be curry flavoured. If you have never made a soup with Curry Powder and Milk, you should try it. It is absolutely delicious. There are some methods to make the soup thick and creamy. You can add Flour, Corn Starch OR Oats. Today I added a Potato, and that is the simplest method. Enjoy the soup with nice crusty Bread. For the photo, I added some pieces of toasted Bread.
