The following is the recipe and steps for this soup:

2. Fry onions for five minutes over medium heat, or until they become tender.  After adding 2 garlic cloves, sauté for an additional minute.
3. Add oat milk and veg stock, followed by sliced potatoes and lemon juice. Give it a good stir and heat it up.
4. Once the potatoes are cooked, lower the heat and boil them gently for 20 minutes.
5. Mix rocket leaves, spinach, and basil leaves, allowing them to wilt for a minute or two.
6. Add grated parmesan (double check the cheese you use if you are a vegetarian) and puree (with a stick blender or a blender) until the mixture resembles soup.
7. Back in the pan, season to taste with a little salt and freshly ground black pepper.
8. After making sure the soup is steaming hot, serve it heated in bowls. Use the left overs later on by allowing to cool and then store in containers.
