Time 45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound medium-thick asparagus, chopped
1 1/2 stalks celery, chopped
1 baking potato
4 cups vegetable stock or water
1 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Dill sprigs for garnish

Steps:

  • Place the onion in a heavy three- quart saucepan. Stir in the oil, cover tightly and cook over low heat 10 minutes, until the onion is soft but not brown.
  • Stir in the asparagus, celery and potato, cook for about a minute, then add the stock, wine and dill. Simmer, partly covered, about 30 minutes, until the vegetables are very tender.
  • Allow the mixture to cool briefly, then puree in a blender or a food processor. You may have to do this in two batches. Run the soup through a sieve into a clean saucepan.
  • To serve, reheat the soup and season it to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon it into six warm soup plates. Float a few sprigs of dill on each as a garnish.
