I've got a recipe for Spinach and Rosemary Soup, which I will be trying out on Kendall in the next couple of days.

1lb potatoes, 2 medium onions,1 small garlic clove (according to taste!),1 heaped tablespoon rosemary leaves, 400g spinach, 400ml milk
100ml cream, juice of half a lemon, olive oil, salt and black pepper, 1 vegetable cube dissolved in 750ml boiling water, 1 flourishing branch of rosemary.

Peel and chop the onion and garlic. Peel the potatoes and dice quite small, rinse and shake dry. Finely chop the rosemary leaves until they look like green dust.

Heat the oil in a heavy bottomed saucepan and stir in the onion, garlic, rosemary and potato.Turn the vegetables until well coated and season generously with salt and pepper. Cover and sweat, stirring a couple of times, on a gentle heat for ten minutes.

Add the milk and boiling stock and simmer until the potatoes are soft.

Meanwhile rinse the spinach and shake dry. Don't remove the stalks but discard any yellow or slimy leaves. Add to the soup and boil with the lid off for two minutes.

Put through a liquidiser or processor and transfer to a clean pan. Bruise the rosemary branch and add to the pan. Stir in the cream and simmer gently for five minutes.

Adjust seasoning, adding the lemon juice just before serving.
