DIRECTIONS

Warm butter and olive oil in a large pot. Add broccoli (chopped into small piece) and onions and saute for a few minutes.
Add the vegetable stock and and simmer until the broccoli is cooked (20-30mins).
Pour into a blender and puree. I like it a little chunky so I do a quick puree.
Return to pot and add the Worcestershire sauce, heavy cream and cheddar, nutmeg, salt and pepper. Simmer on low for 15-20 minutes.
Stir in sherry and parsley and remove from heat. Garnish with Sprig of parsley and any remaining crumbled aged cheddar!
