Description
I could live forever on just this soup - it's gorgeously silky and tastes wonderful, as well as being a really vibrant green.

Chef's Tips
If you want to keep the vibrant green look, peel the potatoes and only use white onions. I don't bother, but it does look so much more striking!
I also leave out the creme fraiche - it's silky and creamy enough for me without it, but some prefer to add it in.
Make a huge batch and freeze it in portions - makes a great lunch in a flask.
