Endive Ham and Cheese Soup

This is sooo good!

I have bought a huge bag of endives in France last Saturday. Some of it went in some salads. Now it is time for something new, a soup.

This recipe is pretty quick to prepare. The cheese makes it smooth and creamy. Just leave the chunks of ham and endive as they are. No need to put the soup in a blender. Cut up the endive and the ham in smaller pieces and that helps.

Recipe for 4:

500 g endive, 1 spring onion, 1 tbsp butter

150 g cooked ham, 100 g Velveta cheese

1 cup cooked cold rice

650 ml chicken stock, nutmeg, salt and pepper

Melt the butter in a pot, toss in onion and ham and give that 3 min. Add the endive and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 2 min.

Fill up with hot chicken stock and cook for 10 min. Add the rice and the cheese and season with nutmeg. Let the soup get up to temperature again, but do not bring it to a boil. 

Enjoy!
