INSTRUCTIONS
1 Melt the butter in a large heavy- based pan. As soon as it foams, add the
onions and potatoes and stir until they are well coated with the butter.
2 Add the thyme, season generously and place a parchment paper lid directly
on top of the vegetables to keep in the steam. Cover the pan with a tight-
fitting lid and sweat on a low heat for about 10 minutes until the
vegetables are soft but not coloured.
3 Remove both lids from the pan and pour in the stock. Bring to the boil
and simmer for 5-8 minutes or until the potatoes are completely tender.
4 Puree the soup in batches in a food processor or with a hand held
blender. Pour back into the pan, season to taste and add the cream and/or
milk. Re-heat gently, ladle into bowls and garnish with thyme leaves and
thyme or chive flowers, if available, to serve.
