Vegan fennel leek soup with cashew cream

Creamy soup that combines the soft, aniseed flavor of fennel with the mild leek. A touch of maple syrup provides a sweet twist. With coriander seeds, paprika powder and some chili flakes for a spicy kick. A vegetable stock forms the basis, supplemented with vegan cream sauce for an extra silky texture. With a topping of pecan nuts and hemp seeds. Perfect as a starter for a Christmas dinner or as a light meal during the week!

  • 1 leek
  • 1 large red onion
  • 1 cup broth 250 ml, MM healing
  • or or chicken stock not vegan
  • 1 cup cashew nuts (135 grams) after measuring soaked for 4 hours in plenty of water

Instructions

  1. Soak the cashew nuts in plenty of water for at least 4 hours. Weigh the amount before soaking.

  3. In the meantime, drain the cashew nuts. Puree with the cup of water until creamy.
  4. In the meantime, also wash and cut the fennel and leek. If there is a tuft of green on your fennel bulb, save it for the garnish!
  5. Fry the fennel and the onion (when you have put the onions i the soup pan) with another drop of water. Add half of the chili flakes and all the paprika powder and the black pepper. Then add to the onions in the soup pan.
  6. Deglaze with the stock and the cashew cream. Let it simmer gently for 15 minutes with the lid on the pan.
  7. In the meantime, clean the frying pan. Crumble the pecan nuts and roast together with the hemp seeds, the salt and the rest of the chili flakes. Then put it aside.
  8. Puree the soup with the hand blender.
  9. Pour the soup into the plates. Top with the nut and seed mixture with chili flakes. Sprinkle the maple syrup around it.
