Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp olive oil or rapeseed oil

  • 60g butter

  • 1 onion, finely chopped

  • 2-3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped

  • 1 large potato, peeled and cut into small cubes

  • 500g green cabbage, shredded

  • 1l stock

  • 100ml single cream

  • sea salt and freshly-cracked black pepper

  • a handful of parsley or chervil, finely chopped

Method

  1. Heat the oil and butter in a large saucepan or casserole over a medium-high heat.

  2. Add the onion and move around the pan for a few minutes until starting to soften and turn translucent.

  3. Add the garlic and potato and cook for another 3-4 minutes, coating everything in buttery oil. Season a little with some sea salt and black pepper.

  4. Add the cabbage next followed shortly after by the hot stock. Bring to the boil and then turn down to a gentle simmer. Cook like this until the potato is cooked all the way through.

  5. Use a good stick blender or large food processor to blitz the soup until very smooth.

  6. Check for seasoning and then stir in the cream and garnish heavily with chopped herbs.
