4 ingredients plus seasoning and fat
Can you think of anything easier than that
The pepperiness! of the watercress and the celery flavour and starchiness provided by celeriac and aromatics provided by the leek. Nice.
Sauteed leeks what a pretty colour
This would feed 4 people for lunch

1 leek washed and sliced
1 celeriac peeled and chopped
1 pkt watercress or big bunch
1 litre chicken stock
Sea salt & freshly ground black pepper
Melt the butter and sweat the leek till tender
Add celeriac toss around in buttery leeks
Add chicken stock
Bring to boil and simmer till celeriac is tender
Season S & P to taste
Into blender throw in half of the watercress
Blend
Add rest of watercress blend again till smooth.
Serve and accompany with some
Basil and Feta Scones.
2 cups self-raising flour
