Celeriac Soup with Napa Cabbage and Bacon

soupceleriac2 oz. butter

2 onions, chopped

1 1/2 lb. celeriac, roughly diced

1 lb. potatoes, roughly diced

5 C. turkey stock

15 oz. evaporated milk

salt and pepper to taste

 

1 small head Napa cabbage

8 oz. bacon, chopped

salt and pepper to taste

 

Melt the butter in a soup pot and cook onions until softened. Add celeriac and cover, steam for ten minutes without disturbing. Remove lid, stir in potatoes and turkey stock and bring to a boil. Boil for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes and celeriac are tender. Either remove half the solids to a blender to puree and return to the pot, or use an immersion blender to blend about half of the solid vegetables. Meanwhile, prepare the cabbage and bacon topping. Discard the outer leaves of the cabbage and roughly chop the rest of the head. Cook the bacon in a small frying pan until crispy, add the chopped cabbage and cook until tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add evaporated milk to soup, bring back up to a boil. Serve in heated bowls and top with cabbage and bacon mixture. Goes well with crusty bread for dipping.
