Vegan Potato and Herb Soup |
Serves 2 to
3 people Ingredients: - 1 1/2 tablespoons of soy/non animal product Margarine - 1 onion, peeled and chopped - 5 medium sized potatoes - peeled and cut into small cubes - 1 litre of vegetable stock - 2 tablespoons of parsley - 2 tablespoons of chives Method: Melt the margarine in a large saucepan. Add the onion and give it a stir. Cover the pan and leave it on a low heat for about 2 mins. Add the potatoes, stir well, cover and cook over a medium heat for about 5 to 10 minutes. Pour in the stock and bring it to the boil, then reduce the heat, cover the pan and leave to simmer until the potatoes are tender; this should take about 10 to 15 minutes. Pour the soup into a blender or food processor and mix it up until it has a smooth texture. Pour the soup back into the pan and add the parsley and chives. Give a good stir so the herbs are mixed in well. Season to tast with salt and pepper. Serve with wholemeal bread and enjoy! This one is bliss in winter! |
