Sweet Potato, Celeriac, Pear Soup

This soup was a bit of an accident born out of what was in my refrigerator but absolutely delicious.

It has reinforced my new love for celeriac which despite being possibly the most ugly vegetable has the most subtle celery and parsley overtone which making it one of the most versatile.

The celery, pear, and ginger ads a softness to the flavour of the sweet potatoes which surprisingly compliment and enhance one another. 

Ingredients:

1 Small Sweet Potato, Peeled and Roughly Chopped

1/2 Small Celeriac, Peeled and Roughly Chopped

1 Pear, Cored and Roughly Chopped

2 Teaspoons Fresh Ginger, Peeled and Finely Chopped

0.5 Litre Chicken Stock

0.5 Litre Water, Bottled

I made this in the soup maker on setting 1. Verdict. Delicious! Using 1:1 chicken stock and water meant the stock did not overpower the subtle flavours.
