CREAMY POTATO SOUP WITH BLACK TRUFFLE SALT

Serves 2

Ingredients:

  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, chopped
  • 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 150 ml single cream, plus extra for drizzling Freshly ground black pepper Freshly ground Terramezzo Black Truffle Salt
  • 3 spring onions 4 slices of bacon

Instructions:

In a large pot, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and sauté until soft and lightly browned. Add the diced potatoes to the pot and sauté for a few minutes, stirring to coat in the butter. Pour the vegetable or chicken broth into the pot to cover the potatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the potatoes are tender (about 15-20 minutes). Meanwhile, chop the bacon and spring onions, then fry them in a pan. When the bacon and spring onions are golden brown, remove from heat and set aside. Once the potatoes are cooked, blend the soup into a smooth puree using a hand blender or mixer. Add the single cream to the soup and mix well. Season the soup with Terramezzo Black Truffle Salt and freshly ground black

pepper to taste.

Serve the soup in bowls, garnished with sautéed spring onions and crispy bacon bits, and drizzle with extra single cream if desired.
