Creamy Asparagus Soup Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Peel the asparagus and reserve the peel
  • In a pot put the peel, the water, salt sugar and 1/2 of the butter. Cook it on high heat until it boils then cover the pot and switch to low heat for 20 mins.
  • After those 20 mins pass it through a sieve or chinoise. (Throw away the peel and keep stock.)
  • Cut the asparagus in small pieces (2-3cm)
  • Put the stock back in the pot together with the asparagus pieces and cook on low fire for 20 mins or untill the asparagus pieces are tender
  • Pass the stock through a sieve again. Take 500ml and add 250ml of milk
  • Make a light brown roux with the rest of the butter and flour
  • Pour the mix of stock and milk over it, use a whisk to dissolve the clumps that the roux may form and add the already cooked asparagus
  • Let it boil for 5 mins and switch the heat off
  • Add the cream and switch heat back on, when the first signs of boiling appear switch it off again (the cream must not boil at this point )
