600g king edward or maris piper potatoes, peeled and roughly chopped
1 litre Cook’s Ingredients fresh chicken stock

1 sprig thyme, leaves picked
1. Put the oil and 20g butter in a large pan set over a medium-low heat. Add the garlic, onion and a pinch of salt then sauté gently for 10-15 minutes until soft and translucent, taking care not to let them brown.

Stir in the yogurt and leave to cool slightly, then blend with a stick or jug blender until completely smooth; season.
3. While the soup is cooking, put the remaining 20g butter in a pan and set over a medium-high heat. Add the almonds and thyme leaves, then fry for 2-3 minutes until golden and aromatic; season. Serve the soup in bowls with the almond and thyme mixture on top, plus a little drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
