Preparation method

Ingredients overview

800 g frozen leaf spinach
60 g small yellow onion
20 g ghee
150 ml chicken broth
150 ml whipped cream
1 clove fresh garlic
30 g grated Parmesan
1 pinch table salt

Peel the onion and dice it finely. Heat the ghee in a pot and sauté the onion pieces until translucent. Add the frozen leaf spinach and let it thaw over medium heat.

Once the spinach has thawed, add the chicken broth and whipped cream. Peel the garlic, finely chop or press it, and also add it to the pot. Season with a pinch of salt.

Bring the soup briefly to a boil, then finely blend it with an immersion blender until a creamy consistency is achieved. Arrange the soup in bowls and generously sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan. Serve warm.

Chef's tip

For a vegetarian version, you can simply replace the chicken broth with vegetable broth. Crispy croutons or a piece of fresh baguette are excellent accompaniments.
