Add the oil, sauté for 2 minutes at Varoma temperature on Speed 1.
5. Add celery, carrot, potato and leek, chop for 4 seconds on Speed 5.

7. Add spinach and cream to the TM bowl, cook for 3 minutes at 100°C on Speed 2. Mix for 30 seconds at Speed 10, carefully holding down the Measuring Cup. Season as necessary.
8. Carefully remove the omelette with the paper from the Varoma, cut into diamond shapes with a knife.
9. Pour the soup into 6 serving plates and decorate with the omelette pieces. Serve immediately.
Suggestion: In place of the omelette you can cook meat balls in the Varoma to add to the soup or decorate the soup with cubes of ham or bacon. For a lighter version replace the cream in the soup with milk. The omelette pieces can be used to decorate all of the soups.
