Apple & Celery SoupRecipe : Apple & Celery Soup
Procedure :
1 sm Head of fresh celery 2 lg Cooking apples 1 oz Butter 60 fl Stock 2 md Onions, peeled and diced Salt and milled pepper Milk to finish Chopped parsley and -browned flaked almonds -to garnish 1 t Soft brown sugar In a large saucepan sweat off the diced onion in the butter. Wash, trim and dice the celery, add to the onion and continue on a low heat. Remove and bruises from the apples and grate them into your pan, discarding the core. Cook for a further 10 minutes before adding the stock, seasoning and sugar ~ beware too much salt if you are using a stock cube. Bring to the boil, then simmer, lid on, for 30 minutes - don't over cook or the celery flavour becomes jaded and the colours dull. Allow to cool a little before liquidising thoroughly. Pass through a large mesh sieve to ensure there are no stringy threads of celery remaining. Check seasoning and consistency, adding a little milk if needed. Serve in warmed bowls, sprinkled with parsley and the browned almond flakes. Source: Lakeland Plastics |
