Method:

Saute the onions and celery in the butter until soft and aromatic.

Add the remaining ingredients except for the cream.

Cover, bring to the boil then reduce the temperature and simmer for 30 – 40 minutes.

(The potatoes take a while to cook because of the acid in the tomatoes.)

Adjust seasoning if needed.

Serve with seed bread.

Tip: if you don’t have cream, replace with milk or stock.
