Stilton and celery soup

Ingredients

  • 12.5g butter
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 head of celery, remove root and chop rest but remember to reserve a few leaves for garnish to serve
  • 500ml water
  • 1 chicken or vegetable stock cube
  • 50g Derinded Stilton cheese (blue or white work well, white is a little milder if anyone is not keen)
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 75ml single cream

Directions

  1. Heat butter and add onions and fry for a couple of minutes
  2. Add celery and heat for a couple of minutes
  3. Add water and stock
  4. Simmer for 30 minutes
  5. A couple of minutes before the simmering is done, put egg yolks, cream and stilton into a glass blender. The heat from the soup will cook the eggs and do the hard work of mixing this together.
  6. Pour in celery stew and blend soup to the consistency you'd like to have.
  7. Serve in two bowls with a garnish of chopped celery leaves.

Lovely with fresh baked brown bread or french baguette.
