Growing up in South Africa, my mom was always trying out different cold appetizer recipes to serve up on the HOT 30'C + days!This cold cucmber soup became a family favourite and is so refreshing and delicious, you will love it too! Read more ! Ingredients:
2 tbsp butter |
1 small onion, finely diced |
1 large english cucumber |
1 cup iceberg lettuce, chopped |
1 medium/large potato, diced |
2 cups good quality chicken broth |
1/2 tsp salt and pepper |
1/4tsp mustard powder |
1 cup cream |
fresh chopped herbs eg. parsley or dill |
Directions:
1. Heat the butter and saute the onion over medium heat until soft and translucent.Add the cucumber, lettuce, potato, broth,salt,pepper,mustard powder.Simmer until the potato are tender.Blitz in your blender until smooth. Pour into a container and chill in the fridge until nice and cold. Just before serving, stir in the cream and taste test if you need to add more salt or pepper. Garnish with the fresh herbs and a slice of red radish!I like to serve it in cute shooter glasses with the radish hanging on the rim OR in white cups and saucers.
