Wild Garlic Oil with vegetable soup

It is a great way to clean the veggie hamper of all the things that are stored in there and a wonderful hot dish for a still very cold late April day -  we had some snow today again and the car windows were frozen early in the morning.


Don`t you just hate it to throw out all the Penguins who are sitting in your back yard in the early hours of the day!!!  : D

recipe for the wild garlic oil:
80 g fresh wood or wild garlic leaves- washed and shaken dry
1 tsp 7 pepper mix
1 pinch of salt
200 ml rape seed oil


Put it in a high bowl and use a stick blender and make a very green oil.

recipe for the soup:
125 g bacon bits
3 small onions
2 spring onions
4 cloves of garlic
4 small potatoes
5 carrots
150 g celeriac cubes
2 bay leaves
800 ml veg stock
100 ml white wine
salt and pepper and dried thyme
2 tbsp fresh herbs

sweat off the bacon with the onions and the garlic, then add all the veggies and the stock, cook for 15 min and add the wine.
Use a stick blender and make a smooth soup.

Use some leftover baguette and some chili oil and a bit of butter and get them in a pan.

Get everything together and enjoy a heart warming soup.
