Preparation

When picking weeds:

  • make sure you know what you are picking
  • don't pick weeds from roadsides (car fumes and soot)
  • best not to pick weeds growing directly next to foot paths (dog pee)
  • young plants are best

Nettles lose their sting as soon as you pour boiling water over them, so use gardening gloves or marigolds when picking, washing and chopping them.

Heat the butter or oil in a large pan and fry the chopped onion for around 3 minutes, add the potato and fry for another minute before adding the stock or bouillon.

Boil for 15 minutes until the potato is soft. Season with salt and pepper.
Puree the soup with a blender and add the cream and nutmeg to taste.
