cream of celery soup
Well, you've got to use the fucker up somehow, haven't you?
serves four
1 head of celery, sliced
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, chopped
a handful of flat-leaf parsley, chopped
1 litre chicken stock
100ml single cream
a pinch of nutmeg
salt + black pepper
2 tbsps olive oil
Heat the oil in a pan over a low heat and add the celery, onion and garlic. Sauté for around 10 minutes until the celery is soft but not coloured. Add the parsley and stock. Season (it may not need salt if you're using a stock cube) and add a little nutmeg. Simmer for about 15 minutes, then stir in the cream. Whiz in a processor until smooth.
