Apple and Celery Soup
This apple and celery soup is an easy to make, healthy soup recipe. Apples and celery are a perfect pairing with the apples lending a sweetness to the savoury tang of the celery.
Equipment
- immersion blender or food processor
Ingredients
- 1 onion peeled and chopped
- 1 potato medium, cut into 1cm dice
- 2 apples peeled, cored and roughly slices
- 1 head celery roughly chopped
- 1 clove garlic peeled and finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon thyme fresh or dried
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 750 ml vegetable stock
Instructions
- Heat a large pan over a medium heat and add the olive oil. Fry the onions and garlic for 5 minutes until just starting to brown.
- Add the prepared potato, apple, celery, thyme and stock. Cover the pan and bring up to the boil.
- Simmer for 20 minutes. The vegetables should be tender to the point of a knife.
- Blitz the soup with an immersion blender until smooth. You could also transfer the soup to a food processor to blend if you prefer.
- Taste and add further seasoning if preferred (it may be seasoned enough from the stock).
Notes
- For a creamier apple and celery soup, replace 100ml of the stock with milk.
- If you prefer, omit the thyme and add some freshly grated ginger or a teaspoon of curry powder.
