Method
Remove the woody ends from the asparagus spears, discard and chop the rest in small chunks, reserving 6 spears for decoration.
You can serve the tips steamed, fried or raw on top of the soup.
Finely chop the shallot and fry in Fussels garlic oil until golden.
Add the chopped asparagus spears and fry for 2 minutes.
Add the stock, miso and potato and bring to boil, simmer for 5-10 minutes or until the asparagus and potato is cooked.
Add the spinach and wild garlic (and any other herbs if using) and stir through the soup.
Blend immediately and check for seasoning.
