Originally got from The Art of Good Cooking, by Pamela Westland and modified for 2 people with UK ingredients and measures. A simplier procedure too. This is a delicate but tasty soup, great with wholemeal bread or a sour dough baguette.
Stilton and celery soup
Ingredients
- 1 small to medium onion, finely chopped.
- 1 head of celery, finely chopped. Remove root and chop rest but remember to reserve a few leaves for garnish to serve.
- 275ml vegetable stock.
- 50g Derinded Stilton cheese (blue or white work well, white is a little milder if anyone is not keen).
- 75ml whipping cream.
Directions
- Put onion and celery in a litre jug.
- Add stock, the celery and onion do not need to be covered.
- Cover with a silicon lid.
- Microwave at 660W for 15 minutes.
- Leaving the soup in situ, add the stilton and cream.
- Blend to your prefered consistency with a stick blender.
- Serve in two bowls with a garnish of chopped celery leaves.
Lovely with fresh baked brown bread or french baguette.
