  • 250g chopped carrots
  • 200g chopped swede
  • 3 small celery sticks
  • 5 small boiled potatoes, peeled and chopped
  • 100g green lentils
  • 1 Litre chicken stock
  • 125ml milk (at room temperature)
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat a deep pot and dry-fry the chilli flakes for a few seconds until they release their aroma. Then add the olive oil. As soon as it heats up add all the vegetables: potatoes, carrot, swede, celery, and lentils. Also add the garlic granules. Cook until everything is well hot, stirring occassionally so that the vegetables do not stick to the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the chicken stock, the milk, the ginger and the salt & pepper. Stir well and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes or until the vegetables are soft. Blend until smooth using a stick blender. Serve hot.
