We picked our first prize from the garden last week and after proudly munching on it raw in the garden ( with huge grins ) we dashed to the kitchen to make something from it.
What we picked was our radishes and what we made was Radish Greens Soup. A subtle yet hearty Italian inspired soup great for any day.

Radish Greens Soup
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1 cup chopped leeks
- 3 medium potatoes chopped
- 3 bunches of radish greens
- 5 cups of veggie or chicken stock
- 1/2 cup of cream
- 1 tablespoon of butter
- 5 tablespoons of grated Parmesan
In a large saucepan saute the leeks and radish greens in the olive oil for a few minutes ( until soft ). Stir in the potatoes and toss over medium heat for five minutes. Add the stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and let cook for 20 minutes.
Partially puree the soup in a blender and return to sauce pan. Stir in the cream, butter and parm. Garnish with julienne of raw radish and enjoy.
