Fancy a vegetable shot? And don't you feel like standing in the kitchen for hours? Soup is the solution, like this creamy spinach soup.
Preparation time:35 minutes
Waiting time:20 minutes
Ingredients for 4 people
Additionally needed: hand blender or food processor, (nutmeg) grater.
Get started Let the spinach wilt quickly in plenty of boiling salted water. Scoop with a slotted spoon directly into a bowl of ice cold water and then into a colander. Drain well. Roughly chop the spinach. Peel and wash the potatoes, cut into cubes. Peel and chop the garlic and shallot. Melt the butter in a (soup) pan and fry the shallot with the garlic until translucent. Stir in the potatoes and flour. Bake for 1 more minute.
Pour in the stock and let it simmer for another 15 minutes. Add the chopped spinach and 150 ml whipping cream. Puree the soup with a stick blender or in a food processor. Allow to reduce slightly or add extra stock to get the desired thickness. Season the soup with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Divide the soup between 4 bowls and garnish with the remaining whipped cream. Finally, grate some nutmeg over it.
