In a saucepan, melt about 100 gm butter, add the onions and soften without colouring, add the potatoes, toss to coat with the onions and butter, add the stock and seasonings, bring to the boil then lower heat to a gentle simmer for about 20 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked and the onions are soft. Blend the soup and then push though a fine sieve, this will give the soup a velvety texture, check the seasoning.
