Watercress Soup

Watercress Soup

Serves: 4

Nice and light, this refreshing soup delivers a little peppery kick, making it a great appetizer. You could even serve it cold in small shot glasses as a palate cleanser in-between courses.

Ingredients

  • 150ml Kerrymaid Single Cream
  • 100g Watercress
  • 1 tbs Olive Oil
  • 1 Leek, finely sliced
  • 1 Onion, finely chopped
  • Salt & Black Pepper, to taste
  • Garlic, to taste
  • 600ml Recipere Vegetable Stock
  • 300g Peas
  • 1 sprig Mint, chopped

Method

  1. Sweat the onion and leeks in olive oil for 5 minutes and season.
  2. Add the stock and bring to the boil. Add the peas and mint, bring back to the boil, then simmer for 5 minutes.
  3. Add the watercress and Kerrymaid Single Cream, and reheat gently.
  4. Remove from the heat, and puree with a blender. Adjust the seasoning to taste.
  5. To serve, pour into soup bowls and finish with a swirl of Kerrymaid Single Cream, and a few fresh watercress leaves on top.

Chef's Tip: For a richer, even creamier taste use Kerrymaid Whipping Cream instead of Kerrymaid Single Cream.
