Method

step 1
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large saucepan on medium-high heat. Add the frozen soffritto (100 g) and cook for 5 minutes, until soft. Add the sliced potatoes (150 g) and butter (20 g) and cook for another 2 minutes, then pour in the chicken stock (750 ml).
step 2
Simmer for 10 minutes, until the potatoes are cooked through. Add the petit pois (350 g) and spinach (100 g) and simmer for a final 5 minutes.
step 3
Blend the soup with a stick blender, or in batches in a highspeed blender (allow it to cool if so).
step 4
Return the blended soup to the saucepan and heat through with half the pulled ham hock (50 g), until you are ready to serve. Season with plenty of salt and pepper.
step 5
Add the flatbreads (2) to a lined baking tray and preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Top the flatbreads with the cheese mix (50 g) and cook for 5-7 minutes, until the cheese has melted. Alternatively, add the flatbreads to your air fryer tray, top with the cheese and cook at 200°C for 5 minutes.
step 6
Serve the soup in bowls topped with the remaining ham hock (50 g), pea shoots (1 handful) and a drizzle of olive oil.
