Pre-cooked soup

Adapted from Stilton and celery soup. A good, heart meal sized portion for two.

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

1. Put onion and celery in a litre jug.
2. Add stock, the celery and onion do not need to be covered by the stock and it is really easy to make this too wet.
3. Cover with a silicon lid.
4. Microwave at 600W for 15 minutes.
5. Leaving the soup in situ, add the Stilton and cream.
6. Blend to your preferred consistency with a stick blender.
7. Serve in two bowls with a garnish of chopped celery leaves.

Lovely with fresh baked brown bread or French baguette.
