I have made this soup numerous times now as we make it regularly at our local TMX Back to Basics cooking class.
I love the taste of the soup, although I can't be sure that I have ever found exactly "butter lettuce" variety. It is always just some sort of lettuce and hoping for the best, but it has been delish anyway.
The soup doesn't make a lot, being based on only 500g water, so it would be very handy one for single people using the Thermomix.

Just noticed this recipe has been uploaded to the RC:

Just thought I'd mention that this soup works just as well with a swede if you don't have a potato on hand:

I tasted this ages ago at a B to B class.

Did you like it, Cookie?
-
Um er I am afraid not.

I had a feeling you were going to say that Cookie :D :D

LOL

I have to say we don't like it either :(
-
Doesnt sound very appetising...

I have had this soup, taste ok with lots of pepper :) lol

I guess a lot depends on the quality of the vege stock concentrate.

I tried this tonight at a cooking class. It was OK, but I think there are much nicer soups out there.

I tried this at a Festive Flavour Cooking Class this week and loved it. I think she made double the quantity, although it was a bit of a squeeze in the bowl. I thought it was super tasty - I love that you can serve it hot or cold. Isn't it the same recipe as the Indian cookbook?

It looks as though it is the same but in the Indian Cookbook there is an option to add 10g of coriander chilli paste in the final blending.

This reminds me of 10 yrs ago. I used to make green soup.
Eventually the kids said what's in it and I said veggies from garden that I've grown.
Eventually they went and looked in the garden and found the lettuces, then they stopped eating it LOL. I thought it was fine.

I love this soup! I eat it hot in the middle of our WA summer, it's just so yum...... I love soup in general though. Despite the butter & cream, it just feels healthy eating a green lettuce soup ;). It's definitely worth trying & doesn't cost much to make. (I use a whole head of butter lettuce, not the 8 or so leaves the recipe suggests).
