    Jerusalem Artichoke Soup

    450g Jerusalem artichokes
    2 x small onions
    50g butter
    1 tsp mild curry pste
    900ml Veg stock
    150ml milk
    a pinch smoked paprika
    4 x tbsp grated parmesan
    salt and pepper to taste

    Scrub artichokes, pat dry and slice thinly. Peel and dice the onions.

    Melt butter in large pan and cook onions gently for 5 mins untl golden and soft. Stir in curry paste and cook for 1 min, add the artichokes and stock and stir well. Bring to boil, cover and simmer for 15 mins (or until fartichokes are tender).

    Add milk and paprika to soup, blitz with blender until smooth. Gently re-heat and stir in parmesan. Season to taste.

    You could use single cream instead of milk and shallots in place of the onions, but I made it as above and it was yummy. Also a nice soup without the parmesan, but adding makes it even more yum

    Recipe suggests you just scrub em to remove loose skin and dirt, so if you want to peel them bung a couple more in to make up the weight

    Cool one of those things I've always wanted to try but never got around to
    Look like thistles on steroids to me.

    I seem to be getting a bunch of them in my veg boxes - they roast well but seem to be a somewhat flatulent vegetable... be warned.
