Put the stock and vegetables in a large saucepan and heat on a high heat until they boil. Cook for 5 minutes
Take the pan off the heat and process the contentsEITHER in a processor OR In the pan with a stick blender
Return to the pan and reheat
You may need to add some hot water if your stock is very rich or there isn't enough for all your vegetables. I dilute 1 litre of homemade turkey stock with about ½ litre water
Add salt to taste. Add a good teaspoon then taste. Add more if necessary. I would add 2-3 teaspoons
To serve, grind some pepper over and a teaspoon of cream swirled in if you have it.
Notes
This soup freezes well. If it's too thick, add water when you reheat.
