    CELERY SOUP - My own recipe, it tastes creamy but there is no cream in it so a fraction of the calories

    6-8 sticks of Celery
    I medium to large Onion
    2 1/2 cups of skimmed Milk
    2 tablespoons Plain Flour
    vegetable stock cube
    1 garlic glove
    pinch of black pepper
    pinch of cayenne pepper
    Salt to taste

    Grate the celery and onion and cook over a very low heat in a heavy lidded pan, adding the stock cube once a little fluid has come out of the veg - no oil should be needed as the water will come out of the veggies
    once veg has softened add the milk and bring to almost boiling.
    Blitz to a smooth consistency using whatever blender you use
    Add your seasoning, lid and return to simmer
    Mix 2 tablespoons of flour with half a cup of water - a shaker makes it easier to eliminate the lumps
    Add flour mixture to the simmer milk and veg and stir constantly while thickening over the heat.

    Serve

    You can turn this into a mushroom soup simply by omitting the celery and adding 200-300g of mushrooms. I also add a teaspoon of chives to my soups.


    Sounds YUMMY!:happy:

    Butternut Squash Soup
    Serves: 6
    400ml water
    500g butternut squash
    1 onion
    1 carrot
    1 veggie stock cube
    1 clove garlic
    1 tsp olive oil
    tiny dash of cayenne pepper(optional)

    Cut the squash in half length ways and remove the seeds and fleshy bit. Then bake in the oven for 40 mins.
    Once baked and cooled, just peel the skin off, it should come off no problem. Make sure you don't waste any fluids that have accumulated in the squash, pour them into the sauce pan.
    Fry the onion and garlic in the oil and any fluids from the squash until softened.
    Add the Stock and water as well as the chopped carrot.
    Cook for 20 mins and then chop the squash and add this. Also add the cayenne pepper at this point if you dare, but be careful you only need a tiny amount to make a huge difference.
    Cook for 10 mins more then remove from heat and blitz.
