Add the potato and stock and simmer until the potato is tender. Add the broccoli and cook for 3-4 minutes until just tender but still bright green. # Add half the cheese with the seasoning and nutmeg and whiz to a smooth soup in a blender. # Crumble the remaining cheese over the top, sprinkle with chives and serve with warm crusty bread. Stilton can often hang around for a bit too long in the fridge so try making this lovely thick soup, which would work well as a starter for a New Years Eve Party. true true false false false false true false false 2.92603483374802080977154489934404 4421 12936.0 1 false approved caroline@lovefoodhatewaste.com 4e252ad5adf7e232 2 false Banbury Caroline Marson
