So this soup came about from a recipe I found from food.com - however it was just with white pepper and to me, it seemed a bit bland. So I used some of my balti paste and I wanted something smooth, not chunky. You can use your favourite curry paste - I only used a little and whilst it was tasty, it didn't overpower the taste of the soup it gave a little kick - the kids didn't even notice. At all. In fact Eloise had seconds.
I served it with my super quick Turkish bread.
Ingredients:
4 litres chicken stock (I used stock powder and water)
2 kg new potatoes peeled and diced
1 small onion, peeled and diced
2 tsp balti paste
250g cream cheese
Method:
Place chicken stock, potatoes and onions in a large pot. Bring to the boil for about 20 minutes, until potatoes are soft.
Add the curry paste and cream cheese and turn down to a simmer for about 10 minutes.
Turn off the hob and using a stick blender process until smooth. Place the hob back on low and simmer for 1 hour.
Add some cracked pepper and serve with bread, the soup will be thick and luscious!
Who loves soup? What do you like to eat with your soup? A particular type of bread or croutons...something else?

English watercress soup. Which I need to experiment with. I have a shed load of rocket inthe garden which I think may be the replacement green.
I am not a crouton fan. But any forcacia studded with rosemary, and I am there....
Yum and very timely, I made chicken stock yesterday and I have lots of potatoes that need using up before they need to be planted not eaten.
Isn't the weather vile- my house smells like a mushroom farm.
It looks fantastic. I love pretty much any type of soup and can't wait for the weather to cool down enough to start making some.
