Everyone will love this gourmet soup, which offers a creative take on traditional broccoli soup with the addition of perfectly cooked scallops.
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a heavy-based saucepan over low-medium heat and cook onions, garlic and 2 teaspoons salt for 5 minutes. Add potatoes and 5 cups water and bring to the boil. Add broccoli and simmer for 10 minutes or until just tender. Cool slightly then blend, in 3 batches, in a food processor until smooth. Return soup to pan. Stir in cream and season to taste with pepper. When ready to serve, gently reheat over medium heat.
- Meanwhile, process parsley and 100ml oil in a food processor until smooth, then strain through a fine sieve.
- Heat remaining oil in a frying pan over high heat and cook scallops for 30 seconds each side or until just tender. Serve soup topped with scallops and chervil leaves, drizzled with parsley oil.
