Methodbased on 4 servings
1

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat and saute onion and celery for a few minutes to soften.

2

Add potatoes, ham hock and stock. You may need to add a little water to cover the hock. Bring to a boil, reduce to a low simmer, cover and cook for 50-60 minutes until ham is very tender.

3

Remove hock from soup and skim off any fat from the surface. Shred meat from the bones, discarding the bones, and roughly chop meat. Set aside.

4

Meanwhile, add peas and most of the spinach to soup and simmer for a few minutes until peas are tender. Use a stick blender and blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning.

5

Ladle soup into bowls, top with ham and extra spinach leaves (or watercress if using). Season with extra black pepper and serve.
