cream of celery soup recipe – from a long time i have been wanting to make cream of celery soup and finally i made the soup. i can think and prepare soup only in winters. i guess this is the last soup recipe i will be posting as the summer season in india is just around the corner.

having soups in the indian summers is an absolute no no, unless it is a cold soup. so i thought i better post this soup recipe before it gets too late. otherwise i will have to wait for a year again to post it in the next winters. at home i always cook seasonal recipes and that reflects on the blog too.

this celery soup is a one pot soup recipe. i have not used milk and all purpose flour to thicken the soup. instead added potatoes to thicken the soup. i have added low fat dairy cream in the recipe. but feel free to skip it or reduce the proportion if you want a lighter version of the soup.

in india, celery is available in most metro cities in super markets which sell gourmet stuff and herbs. i do have celery shrubs at home, but for the soup i had purchased the celery from the market. i had got these long stalks which i chopped fine and then added to the soup.
