Method

  1. To make the Creamy Jerusalem Artichoke Soup, start by washing, trimming and peeling the onion, the potatoes and the Jerusalem artichokes. Finely chop the onion, then cut the Jerusalem artichokes and the potatoes into cubes, all the same size.
  2. Take a large skillet and sauté the chopped onion in a drizzle of oil. When the onion has browned, add the potato and Jerusalem artichoke cubes too and cook for a few minutes. When the vegetables have dried out slightly, add the hot vegetable broth and cook over low heat for about 20 minutes.
  3. Take the skillet off the heat, add the plant-based cream and blend everything with an immersion blender until you reach the consistency you like. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve the Creamy Jerusalem Artichoke Soup piping hot. Finally, remember to download our App with exclusive content and fewer ads!
