Recipe Review - Lettuce Soup - p17FF

[cecilia]

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 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?
