Simple and comforting. This was a great way to use my watercress! I think the pureeing part would be easier with a stick blender, but I don't have one yet.

The soup was very good. I have just learned of the incredible nutritional value of watercress and I was trying to find ways to eat it other than on salads. This was absolutely a perfect way. I will be making a lot of this and keeping it in the fridge. P.S I did make it lower fat by using non fat milk and I was still pleased with the results !!

We found fresh watercress at a farmer's market and were looking for something to do with it. I like anything with potatoes, so we tried this. It was very tasty. Watercress doesn't have much flavour, but we compensated (see below) and it was a very nice addition to dinner. variations: we used a little more salt and pepper than was called for, and also vegetable stock (I'm vegetarian).

I was trying to figure out a quick fix for all this watercress I bought on a whim, and this worked perfectly! It's also low fat, I could just use skim milk. I might try to use less liquid and allow the watercress stock to be thicker next time for a creamier texture...it was also hard to control the blender at first, you have to start low and stay at the "mix/chop" modes for awhile.

I left out the oil, and cooked the potato and onion in a small amount of water with a chicken bouillion cube thrown in. Topped up the liquid with milk and left out the cream. Most excellent. This is a good one for the immersion blender - with a full size blender you need TINY batches or it's likely to throw the lid off and splatter you and your kitchen with green goo.

I was looking for a non-salad recipe so I could use up that bunch of watercress and this one is a winner! I substituted potatoes water for milk (didn't have any on hand) & added cornstarch as a thickener & love it! I'll be making this over & over again.
