(Serves 2)
3 sticks celery
1 large leek
3 medium potatoes
3 large carrots
1 cooking apple
2 cups frozen mixed veg (sweetcorn, peas etc)
Fresh basil
First place all veg (apart from mixed veg) in a large salad spinner, fill with water and wash veg, no need to peel. Boil a kettle of water. Dice the celery and leak, add to a large pan and pour boiling water over the top until just covered. Then chop into cubes the potato, carrots and apple and pour on the rest of the water until covered. Then cover, cook until tender but not disintegrating. Take off the heat, allow to cool for a few minutes, drain some of the water into a jug, then blend with a hand blender. Add the drained water until desired consistency.
Rinse frozen veg under cool water until defrosted then add to the hot soup. Top with lots of fresh basil.
