Red cabbage soup

Writer: Chiara LanciaChiara Lancia


The season of soups has officially started in this household, I usually batch cook them then freeze the individual extra portions to have a quick meal handy when needed.

If you are looking for a delicious soup this is the one to go to. Spooky and naturally coloured by the red cabbage, could be good fun for the kids (and adults) for Halloween dinner.


Ingredients for 4 :


1/2 red cabbage

1 potato or 3 parsnips

4/5 shallots

1 leek

Extra virgin olive oil

salt

pepper

2 tsp Chinese five spice (optional)

Pumpkin seeds for garnish


Method :

Heat the oil in a saucepan over moderate heat and add the sliced leek and shallots then let them cook until soft, add the chinese five spice at this point if you like.

Add the shredded cabbage and the diced potato then cover with water or stock.

Let it simmer for about 20 min and then with an hand blender blitz it until smooth.

Adjust with salt and pepper and scatter on top some pumpkin seed, drizzle some olive oil and a swirl of creme fraiche.

Will keep for 3 days in the fridge in an airtight container or in the freezer for 2 months.
