Added by Fillylourecipes Source: 101 Cookbooks - web

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 cloves, chopped garlic
  • 2 medium, chopped onions
  • big pinch salt
  • 2 1/2 cups, 1/2 inch cubes potatoes - about 2 medium
  • 2 1/2 cups, loosely chopped zucchini - 2 medium
  • 4 cups vegetable stock
  • 4 cups fresh spinach leaves, loosely packed
  • 1 cup cilantro, loosely chopped
  • 1 lemon

Directions

In a large, thick-bottomed pot over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. When the oil is hot (but not smoking) add the garlic and onions and saute for a few minutes along with pinch of salt - just until they soften up a bit. Stir in the potatoes and zucchini. Add the stock. Bring to a simmer and cook until potatoes are soft throughout, roughly 10-15 minutes.

Stir in the spinach, and wait for it to wilt, just ten seconds or so. Now stir in the cilantro. Puree with a hand blender until smooth. Whisk in a big squeeze of lemon juice. Now taste, and add more salt if needed. Finish with a drizzle of olive oil and serve.

Serves about 6.
