Directions
1. First off, peel the spring onion, ginger, and garlic cloves. After the peels are discarded, chop them up roughly. For this recipe, we will be blending all the ingredients so everything does not need to be chopped up finely.
2. Put all the ingredients in a pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium low and cook at a gentle boil for 20 minutes, or until potatoes are just fork tender.
3. Then turn off the stovetop and carefully spoon all the ingredients into a blender.
4. Blend until the mixture is creamy and thick.
5. Enjoy warm! Add a dash of paprika, some hemp seeds and garnish with some celery leaf.
