How to make Light Cream of Asparagus:

1. To start making our light asparagus cream, the first step is to pre-list all the ingredients.
2. Bring a pot to medium heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the onion, leek cut into pieces, the garlic paste, salt and pepper. Sauté for a few minutes to make our light asparagus cream.
3. Once the onion has been fried, add the chicken broth and skim milk along with the whole asparagus. If you want you can add salt and pepper to taste.
4. Add bay leaf and thyme to taste, what these herbs are going to do is aromatize the cream. Let it boil for about 10 to 15 minutes over medium-low heat.
5. Remove the light cream from the heat and let cool to be able to blend. Once it is liquefied, bring it back to low heat and add, if we want. A little light milk cream to thicken our soup a little if you do not want to add more calories to the preparation you can leave it as is.
6. Serve our light asparagus cream with a splash of olive oil to decorate and dry thyme on top.
