- Blitz with a hand held blender, or in a liquidiser, until as smooth as you like
- Bring back to boil, stirring constantly, it sticks and burns, very quickly. Check seasoning and add salt and pepper to taste, I like lots of black pepper!
- Serve. You can drizzle in cream or creme fraiche, add croutons
- The soup pictured contained roast potatoes, candied sweet potatoes, peas, sweetcorn, carrots, broccoli and greens. You can make from scratch with fresh vegetables but it doesn't taste as good.
