HERBY SPINACH-AND-RICE SOUP WITH TURMERIC

Steps:

• Cook 2 tablespoons oil and cumin seeds in a small skillet over medium, swirling pan, until seeds are fragrant, darkened slightly in color, and sizzling, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl; let cool completely. (Oil can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.)
• Heat a medium saucepan over medium; swirl in remaining 3 tablespoons oil. Add shallots and garlic, season with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Stir in rice, potato, and turmeric; cook, stirring, 1 minute. Add broth and 1 cup water; bring to a boil. Season with salt, reduce heat, and simmer, partially covered, until flavors meld and potato and rice are cooked and very tender, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in spinach, herbs, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper.

CREAMY SPINACH SOUP

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large lidded saucepan, add the onion and garlic and fry gently for 5-6 minutes until softening. Stir in the potato and continue to cook gently for 1 minute. Pour in the stock and simmer for 8-10 minutes until the potato starts to cook. Pour in the milk and bring up to a simmer, then stir in half the spinach and the lemon zest. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes until the spinach has completely wilted down. Allow to cool for about 5 minutes.
• Pour the soup into a blender (preferably) or food processor, add the remaining spinach (this will keep the soup bright green and fresh tasting) and process until silky smooth - you may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your machine. (The soup may now be frozen for up to 1 month. Defrost in the microwave or overnight in the fridge. The soup may lose some of its vibrancy on freezing, but the flavour won't be impaired.) Return to the pan and reheat. Taste and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. You may like to dilute the soup with a little extra stock if too thick. Ladle the soup into bowls and swirl in the cream

MUSHROOM SPINACH SOUP

• Stir the reserved mushrooms and spinach leaves into the broth, and cook until spinach is wilted. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve garnished with Parmesan cheese if desired.

ROASTED TOMATO & MASCARPONE SOUP

Steps:

• Heat oven to 170C/150C fan/gas 3 - 4. Bring a pan of water to the boil and get a bowl of iced water at the ready. Cut a small slit in the bottom of each tomato then plunge into boiling water in batches for 10 secs then lift out into the iced water. Drain and peel the tomatoes then halve and place on a baking tray cut side up. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and the sugar. Drizzle with the vinegar and 1 tbsp of the olive oil. Roast the tomatoes for 1hr until semi-dried and set aside.
• Heat the remaining oil in a large saucepan and cook the onion and carrot gently for about 10 mins until very soft. Add the tied herbs and garlic and cook for a minute more. Stir in the tomato purée then tip in the roasted tomatoes and any juices from the tray. Pour over the stock and season with salt and pepper. Bring to the boil then turn the heat down and simmer for 10 mins.
• Remove the tied herbs and discard. Add the mascarpone then take off the heat, blitz well with a hand blender. If you want a smoother soup then it can be sieved but this isn't really necessary. The soup can now be cooled and kept for 3 days in the fridge or frozen for up to 1 month. For a dinner party, serve the soup with a sprig of thyme and a drizzle of good quality olive oil.
