  • Towards the end of cooking prepare the sea spaghetti by chopping into roughly 3 - 4cm strips.
  • Heat 2 tbsp oil in a wok on a highish heat and fry for 6 – 8 minutes, stirring regularly.
  • Add the baby spinach and kale to the soup and bring back to a simmer for a further 3 minutes.

  • Serve in bowls garnished with the sea spaghetti if using and some warm crusty bread.

Notes

To make the soup suitable for vegans just replace the butter with more oil or a dairy free spread.
