Creamy Spinach and Celery Soup
(serves 4)
2 tbsps butter
1 shallot, minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 small potatoes, cubed (about a large handful)
1 cup celery, chopped roughly
2 tsps celery salt
480 grams/about 18 ounces, or in England two large bags washed baby spinach
2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
1/2 cup whipping cream
Melt the butter in a large heavy saucepan and add shallot, garlic, potatoes and celery. Saute until the garlic is softened. Add the celery salt and the spinach. It will seem like a great deal of unwieldy leaves, but do not despair. Pour over the stock and bring to a simmer. The spinach will quickly wilt. Simmer for about 20 minutes until the potatoes are soft. Puree with a hand blender, then add cream.
