Method

  1. Place your olive oil into the pot on a medium heat then add celery, garlic and potatoes into the soup pot with a pinch of salt.

  3. Fry for about 5 minutes stirring regularly, adding more water if the vegetables start to stick.
  4. Pour in stock and add the celery leaves and bring to the boil, turn the heat down and simmer for 20 minutes, until the potatoes are falling apart and celery is soft
  5. Use a stick blender to whizz this all up and add in the milk and whizz again.
