# Ingredients:

100 g bacon strips.
02 -
100 g cheddar for topping.
03 -
Pepper.
04 -
Salt.
05 -
1 tsp sweet paprika.
06 -
100 ml milk.
07 -
300 g heavy cream.
08 -
800 ml chicken stock.
09 -
4 tbsp flour.

2 tbsp butter.

300 g shredded cheddar cheese.
12 -
4 carrots.
13 -
3 garlic cloves.
14 -
1 onion.
15 -
2 heads broccoli.
# Instructions:
01 -
Taste and see if it needs anything extra, let it thicken if you’d like, and dish it up topped with more cheese and those crispy bacon bits.
02 -
Pop the bacon into a skillet, don’t add oil, and just fry ‘til it’s golden and crunchy.
03 -
Drop the cheddar, carrots, and broccoli right in, let everything simmer on low for about 15 to 20 minutes.
04 -
Toss in flour, cook that for a bit so it’s not raw, then pour in the broth, cream, and milk—let it blend together.
05 -
Melt the butter, then cook the onions for a couple of minutes. Next, add the garlic and spices, let them sizzle for a moment.
06 -
Break broccoli into small pieces, slice the carrots nice and thin, and dice up the onion and garlic.
# Notes:
01 -
If you need it thicker, a little cornstarch mixed in does the trick.
