ROASTED ASPARAGUS AND POTATO SOUP



Roasted Asparagus and Potato Soup image

This yummy recipe came from my love of asparagus (especially when they're cheap and in season in early spring!), and some potatoes reaching their last mile. Asparagus is really cheap in SoCal starting in March, so this whole dish probably cost less than $10 to make. Add a sandwich and/or salad and it's a great health dinner. This is the best soup I've made... maybe had... so far. It's much easier with a stick blender, but any blender will do.

Time 45m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 bunches asparagus
4 small idaho potatoes, eyes removed
1/2 cup grated asiago cheese or 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, loosely packed
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon allspice
4 cups vegetable stock
1 tablespoon salt (to taste)
1 teaspoon pepper (to taste)
1 teaspoon cajun seasoning
4 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Remove hard ends of asparagus. Preferably this is done by grabbing each end of your asparagus and bending it until it breaks. It should naturally break where it's tough.
  • Boil asparagus ends (normally they'd be tossed) and potatoes in vegetable stock and water as necessary to cover everything until potatoes are nearly done, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, remove tips of half of your asparagus. Toss all asparagus (and tips) in olive oil and all seasonings, and broil on high for 20 minutes, tossing regularly to prevent burning. Remove when some browning all over. If you think you've overdone it, just taste one before throwing. The asparagus carmelizes fast and may look burned when it's still fine. Firmness will vary with thickness of asparagus.
  • Remove potatoes and asparagus ends from liquid. Toss asparagus ends. Add roasted asparagus, but reserve tips. Peel potatoes and chunk before adding back to pot. Chunk up potatoes to make blending easier.
  • Continue to boil at high for 5 minutes or until potatoes are fully cooked.
  • Blend in batches or with wand blender.
  • Return to heat, add half of asparagus tips and let cook for another 10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning. Add water if too thick.
  • Remove from heat, and add cheese. If using a microplane to grate your hard cheese, use about 1 cup of loosely packed cheese.
  • Serve with a few asparagus tips added to top of each serving.

ASPARAGUS, LEEK, AND POTATO SOUP



Asparagus, Leek, and Potato Soup image

This was just a creation I came up with when my asparagus was looking a little old. At first, I thought I was going to add some sort of cream base, but the soup ended up not needing it. The vegetables just taste lovely as they are. Even my husband who hates soup and asparagus LOVED this! It is also a great way to use almost-expired vegetables in your veggie drawer!

ASPARAGUS POTATO SOUP



Asparagus Potato Soup image

I was looking for a new way to eat asparagus and found this recipe in The Amish Cook at Home. I'm amazed at how simple yet delicious many of their recipes are (they look like you really worked hard). The potato thickens the soup, and it's a light color like a cream sauce. I left the skins on my potatoes and used probably a cup of onion, but otherwise I followed the recipe as listed. Make sure you whisk the milk and flour together (I added the flour slowly to the milk) or you'll end up with flour clumps. The asparagus stays nice and crisp. A variation suggested by the author is to sprinkle crumbled bacon on top as a garnish (now wouldn't that be heavenly).
