Place all ingredients except milk, salt and pepper in pot, put on lid, bring to boil then turn down heat to medium and let it rapidly simmer for 8 to 10 minutes.
Remove lid, add milk, bring back to boil, then remove from heat and whizz with hand held blender.
You can thicken the soup by cooking it for longer on the stove on a medium low heat.
Season to taste with salt and pepper, serve with croutons if desired.
