  Really good. I only used a teaspoon of oil and omitted the butter. I just added a little water and steamed the veg before adding the stock to soften them. I don't like blue cheese but added 60g of Gorgonzola after reading the other comments, it gave it a good flavour without overpowering the soup. My 6 and 10 year olds loved it too, will definitely be making it again, hoping if freezes ok.

  I forgot the knob of butter, and I didn't have a leak, I used 2 sticks of celery and I had no stilton so used a bit of very strong cheddar, a bit of gryere, some port salut and some roule! Very very tasty, just a little bit stringy from the broccoli stalk I think.

  I have made this soup many times, it is in fact my husband's favourite despite the fact that he doesn't really like cheese, and he wouldn't normally dream of eating blue cheese. I sometimes use Danish blue instead of stilton, which I find to be even creamier and have also tried the recipe using garlic and herb cream cheese which is also gorgeous. So easy and delicious. I served this at a dinner party recently and it was a great hit!

  Excellent. Texture is perfect; silky & scoopable. I didn't find it watery at all thanks to the potato. I used homemade chicken stock, and I also used most of the broccoli stalk, chopped small, no need to waste it - it can all go in a soup. I had less than half the stilton required in the fridge but it was absolutely fine (I love stilton though so recommend using all of it if you can!). I used a bayleaf during cooking, think it makes a difference.

  Easy, cheap and straight forward to make, flavours balance each other out tasting neither too much like broccoli or blue cheese. Will now be a staple meal. Nice one!

  This was a lovely warming soup with flavour. Just loved the stilton addition and it looks so good too. Great to make in batches with the cheese left over from parties. Yummy

  Straightforward recipe with great results. I used two leeks as am not a fan of celery and the end result was a light delicious soup which felt as nourishing as it looked.

  We made it today, as per the recipe but with cauliflower instead of broccoli, and it tastes great. Better than most restaurants. The Stilton taste is not too strong. The soup tasted smooth and creamy despite not having any cream in it. A good soup for anybody wishing to avoid adding cream to get a smooth texture. Will now be a regular menu item in our house.

  Made this last night and it was beautiful...I did add a tiny bit more salt as I had used more water and felt I needed a little bit more flavour. I also used Gorgonzola instead of Stilton and a cup of light cooking cream. Perfect for cold nights.

  Just made this and it really was lovely. I thought it might be a bit watery when I was boiling the veg but it really thickened up with the brocolli. Might just use a tad less stock next time. If you dont like stilton don't let this put you off as you get nothing of the strong taste - my OH said he couldnt tell Stilton was in it. Ideal dinner party starter. You can make right up to blending it then just reheat and drop your stilton in. Yum.

  This is delicious! I didn't use the celery, but added some fresh dill instead at the end of cooking and also used a different kind of blue cheese, but it just tastes yummy!
