This will seem like a fancy soup without a lot of effort. Stilton cheese is really rich and creamy, and gives the soup a wonderful flavor.

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 sticks butter
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 ½ cups chopped celery
4 ¼ cups water
3 ¾ ounces Stilton cheese, crumbed and divided
4 sprigs watercress, for garnish
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch salt, or as desired

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large pot over medium low heat. Add the onions and saute for 10 minutes, or until onion is translucent.
  • Add the celery and the water. Cover and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes, or until celery is soft.
  • Add 2 1/2 ounces of the Stilton cheese to the soup and mix well. Puree the soup in small batches in a blender or food processor and transfer it to a clean pot. Season with freshly ground pepper and salt to taste. Stilton can be very salty, so beware!
  • Pour into individual bowls, sprinkle with the remaining cheese and garnish with the watercress.
