4 servings
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
Chef's tipUse a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one. - 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup whole milk
Chef's tipUse the same amount of soy milk as regular milk. It's one of the most reliable milk swaps and works in almost any recipe, including sauces, custards, and baked goods. In cold drinks or uncooked dishes you may notice a mild soy flavor. - 1 lb broccoli florets (about 5 cups), cut into small pieces
- 1 medium carrot, peeled and diced
- ½ cup heavy cream
Chef's tipUse unsweetened dairy-free heavy cream in cooked sauces, soups, and ganache. For whipped uses, choose a product labeled whippable. - 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese, plus more for serving
Chef's tipIf the dish is baked or melted, cover it or keep the heat gentle - dairy-free shreds melt more slowly than dairy cheese. - ½ tsp dry mustard
- ¼ tsp freshly grated nutmeg
- salt and pepper, to taste
For serving
- 2 tbsp fresh chives, thinly sliced (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Melt the butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion and carrot and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and translucent and the carrot has begun to soften, about 6–8 minutes.
- 2
Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
