Celery for skin and heat related conditions
This is a really simple but nutritious and refreshing soup. It is quick to make and can be eaten as a snack or light lunch. Celery is a good source of Vitamin A as well as Vitamin C, B1 and B2 and calcium.
Ingredients:
1 tbsp olive oil
1 garlic clove chopped
½ red onion chopped
150g celery chopped
200ml hot stock (I make my own bone broth and use that)
single cream to serve, optional
Preparation:
Heat the oil in a saucepan and cook the garlic and onion until softened.
Add the celery and cook for a further five minutes.
Pour in the stock and simmer for 10-12 minutes.
Transfer the soup to a blender or use a handheld blender and liquidise.
To serve, place the soup into a bowl, drizzle with single cream and garnish with celery leaves.
