Courgette and Brie Soup

This soup has the most delicious taste and a lovely texture and colour. Easy to make too. Serves 4-6

450g/1lb courgettes, washed, trimmed and cut into small chunks
1 onion, peeled and sliced
2 medium sized potatoes, peeled and chopped
1.2 litres/2 pts vegetable or chicken stock
225g/8oz Brie, cut into small chunks
Freshly ground black pepper

Method:
Place all the ingredients except the Brie in a large saucepan, bring to the boil then cover the pan and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.

Stir in the brie and cook for a couple of minutes or until the cheese has melted.

Allow to cool a little and then puree in a food processor or using a hand held blender. Re-heat gently and serve with some crusty bread or croutons.
