Jerusalem Artichokes Creamy Soup

Another creamy soup!? Yeah,  Jerusalem artichokes deserved a version on their own!
This is really good and it is also useful to spoil oneself in these cold nights …

Ingredients:
(serves 2)
250 gr of Jerusalem artichokes
2 potatoes
½ leek (just white part, the most tender)
½ cup of soy cream (I use Provamel)
500 ml of water
1-2 teaspoons of veg stock
oil

Method:
Peel potatoes and Jerusalem artichokes and cut them into small pieces.
Meanwhile, in a sauce pan prepare the broth with water and veg stock; in another pan, fry a little oil with the leek, finely chopped.
Add potatoes and Jerusalem artichokes to the leek (at this point, in the original recipe you have to add wine, but I didn’t have it) and pour the hot broth.
Let it simmer, covered with a lid, until potatoes and Jerusalem artichokes get soft; add or remove the broth as needed.
Purée with the hand blender, add soy cream and stir for 5 minutes. Season with salt if necessary.
Serve hot with some sesame seeds.

   Good! I love Jerusalem artichokes! Not that easy to find though; and I’ve been told that they make you bloat 🙁

   I didn’t notice any bloat! Anyway, even if you could have this kind of problem it’s worth tasting it because it’s very delicious!!!

   Terrific work! This is the type of information that should be shared around the web. Shame on the search engines for not positioning this post higher!
