Step by step recipe

Stage 1

Prepare 3 lb + 4.8 oz Jerusalem artichokes.

Peel and wash 3 lb + 4.8 oz turnip.

Cut thin slices (the mandolin is ideal for this).

Prepare 3 shallots and slice it.

Stage 2

Wash the turnip leaves like lettuce, then drain.

Stage 3

Melt 3.3 oz butter in a large saucepan on high heat. When good and hot, add the onion, salt and pepper.

Cook for 1 or 2 minutes without colouring.

Add the turnip and artichoke slices, mix well and leaves to cook for 2 or 3 minutes, stirring from time to time.

Stage 5

Add 6 lb + 9.6 oz water and 3 chicken stock cubes.

Stage 6

Bring to the boil, then turn down the heat and leave to simmer until the artichokes are tender (they take the longest).

Add the turnip tops.

Stage 8

Cook for a further 2 or 3 minutes.

Stage 9

Then blend the soup to finish.
