Ingredients
- 1 onion medium
- 12 oz asparagus 340g, trimmed weight
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 ½ cups stock 600ml, vegetable/chicken as prefer/to diet, light
- 1 cup arugula fairly well packed/25g rocket or spinach
- 1 tablespoon mint
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Roughly dice the onion, slice the trimmed asparagus and finely chop or mince the garlic.
- Warm the oil over a medium heat and add the onion. Cook for a couple minutes until it starts to soften then add the asparagus and garlic. Cook another couple minutes until becoming tender.
- Add the stock, bring to a simmer and cook around 5-10min until asparagus is tender. Add the arugula (or spinach), wilt it down then blend the soup either with a hand blender or transfer to a blender.
- While soup is cooking, roughly chop then crush the mint, add the oil and crush so the mint and oil are well combined.
- Season the soup to taste, serve and drizzle over the minted oil.
Notes
- I find the easiest way to blend soups like this is with an immersion/stick blender (affiliate link).
