Easy Creamy Celery Soup Recipe
This is an easy creamy celery soup and tastes as divine as it looks. Add a few things to make it your main dish or serve it as a side dish!
Ingredients
- 1½ lb 675gm celery
- 8 oz 225gms potatoes
- 4 oz 100gm onion
- 2 oz 50gm butter
- 1 litre 1¾ pints warm water
- ½ pt 275ml milk
- 2 oz 50gm double cream
Instructions
- Prepare the celery by cleaning and trimming it. (Keep the leaves for later)
- Chop into small pieces.
- Peel and chop the potatoes and place in a bowl of water. (to prevent them turning brown)
- Chop the onion.
- Melt the butter in a heavy bottomed pan.
- Cook the onions and celery until soft, do not brown.
- Add the water, milk, salt, and pepper and finally the potatoes.
- Bring to a boil and reduce heat to simmer.
- Simmer for 45 minutes.
- Use a blender/liquidizer to make it smooth, or leave a little out so you can leave some little pieces as I have done in the photo but it is delicious either way.
- Return to pan and gradually add the cream.
- Serve with the celery leaves sprinkled on top. (Parsley could also be used if preferred)
- Serve with your favorite crusty bread or croutons!
