- 2 large potatoes
- 1 choko
- 1/2 head iceberg lettuce
- 1/2 leek
- 1/4 cup parsley
- iodised salt to taste
- rice bran cooking oil (or suitable oil)
Method:

- Place the premade stock into a large saucepan that has a lid and bring to the boil
- Peel the potatoes and choko and cut them into chunks
- Add the potatoes, choko, leek and salt to the warmed stock and bring to the boil
- Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes
- Add the washed and roughly chopped lettuce and parsley
- Continue simmering for about 10 minutes, or until the potato and choko are soft.
- Allow everything to cool slightly before processing. (Allow steam to vent when processing warm, or wait until the mixture is cold. You don’t want the processor to explode)
- Process the mixture in batches, in a food processor, until smooth
- Add salt to taste
- Don’t add all the liquid in the pot if you wish to have a thicker soup
Serve:
- Serve with your choice of gluten free bread or crackers
Tip:
Larger chunks of potato and choko take longer to cook, but they retain more nutrients.
