Asparagus soup

Woolworths is committed to sustainability via our good business journey. Seasonal (and other) products might not always be in stock.

Ingredients

2 cups cream
2 cups good-quality chicken stock
2 x 170 g Woolworths asparagus spears punnets, trimmed
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
Ground nutmeg, to taste
Salt, to taste
4 T Woolworths cultured cream
1 x 100 g Woolworths asparagus tips punnet, blanched
4 T extra virgin olive oil
1 lime, zested

Cooking Instructions

Place the cream and chicken stock in a saucepan over a medium heat. Roughly chop the asparagus spears, then add to the saucepan with the garlic and cook for 10–15 minutes, or until tender.

Transfer to a blender and blend until smooth.

Return the mixture to the saucepan and place over a low heat, then season with nutmeg and salt.

Once warm, pour into serving bowls, add a spoonful of crème fraîche to each and scatter over the asparagus tips. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and garnish with lime zest.
