Instructions
1.
Wash, peel and cut the carrot into small pieces of 1/2cm. Peel the onion and chop it finely. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium-size pot and sauté the onion and carrot for 1 minute. Add the thyme, the vegetable broth and 1 litre of hot water. Bring it to a boil and let it simmer for 12 minutes. Season to taste.
2.
Boil 1 litre of water in a pot and add salt to taste. Cut the broccoli in small pieces and place it in the water. Cook the broccoli for 2-3 minutes or until the water starts boiling again. Drain the water and set the broccoli aside.
3.
Cut the tofu into cubes of approx. 1cm and sauté it in 1 tablespoon of olive oil until it's golden brown. Remove from the pan. In the same pan, toast the almonds for 1 minute.
4.
Once the carrot's cooking time has passed, remove the thyme branches and use a hand blender to blend it to a smooth cream. Try the flavour and season to taste. If the cream is very thick, add some hot water to make it thinner.
