- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ white onion diced
- 2 garlic cloves minced or finely diced, more to taste
- 1 celery stick finely diced
- 2 small carrots sliced
- 1 cup broccoli florets diced
- 1 small sweet potato peeled, diced
- 1 cup kale or other greens, stems removed, diced
- 2 cups gnocchi
- 2 cups vegetable stock
- ½ cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar optional
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried sage
- 1 bay leaf
- pinch salt
- pinch black pepper
Fry the onion in olive oil for 3-4 minutes in a large pot, until softened. Add the garlic and dried herbs and cook for a further 2-3 minutes, stirring to combine. Add the celery and cook for a further 3-4 minutes.
Add the broccoli, sweet potato and carrot to the pot and cook for 4-5 minutes. If needed, add a splash of water if the potato starts to stick.
Pour in the vegetable stock along with the gnocchi. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a very light simmer. Pour in the coconut milk and stir well. Cook for 6-8 minutes.
Add the kale (or other greens) and the apple cider vinegar (if using). Cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Remove the bay leaf, season with salt and black pepper and ladle the soup into your bowls.
- Dice the vegetables to roughly similar sizes for an even cook time.
- Don't overcook the gnocchi! Give it a test with a fork after about six minutes. It should still be plump and soft.
- Personally I don't feel the soup needs it, but if you like a thicker soup add a little flour along with the vegetables.
- Don't forget to remove the bay leaf!
