We went for lunch with our dear friends and good cooks Wim and Ellen. And Ellen conjured up an olive soup that was so delicious and surprising that I immediately knew one thing: we are going to serve it with à la Damaris. I had never come up with the idea before and judging by the reactions of our guests, I was not the only one. I gave it an à la Damaris touch but other than that all credits go to Ellen.

Ingredients

  • 2 Onions

  • 4 cloves garlic

  • 3 leeks

  • 2 potatoes (optional)

  • 1 large can green olives

  • 4 cubes vegetable broth

  • 500 ml white wine

  • 200 ml plant based cream

  • olive oil

  • salt and pepper

  • Nigella seeds for garnish

preparation

  • Roughly chop the onions and fry them gently in the olive oil. Add the garlic cloves and let them fry for a while.
    Cut off the green from the leek and roughly chop the white part. Add to the pan and let it fry for 5 minutes.
    Now add the white wine and the vegetable stock tablets. Top up with hot water until the vegetables are 3 cm submerged. If you want a thicker soup, you can now add the potato.
  • Cook the soup for 10 minutes (or until the potato is tender).
    Now add the olives, and set aside 10 for garnish.
  • Puree the soup. Add the cream and puree again. If you find the soup a little too thick, you can also add some water. Bring it to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Cut the reserved olives into rings. Place them on top of the soup and garnish with the beautiful nigella seeds.
