Breadfruit Soup
A traditional Caribbean easy-to-make soup. Simply cook a head of garlic, onions and tomato paste in coconut oil until tender. Add cubed breadfruit and enough water to make a thick broth. Add thyme, scallions/spring onions, some seasoning and simmer for about 40 minutes. Let cool slightly before blending in batches until smooth. Serve with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro for garnish. Enjoy!
- - 1 head of garlic minced
- - 2 onions diced
- - 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- - 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- - 1 large breadfruit cubed
- - 4 cups water
- - 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Heat the coconut oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
Add the tomato paste and stir to combine. Cook for another minute or two until fragrant.
Add the cubed breadfruit and enough water to make a thick broth. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer for about 40 minutes or until the breadfruit is tender.
Add the thyme, scallions/spring onions, salt and pepper to taste and simmer for another 10 minutes or so until all flavors have combined nicely.
Let cool slightly before blending in batches until smooth (you can also use an immersion blender). Serve with freshly chopped parsley or cilantro for garnish if desired. Enjoy!
