Super easy and fast soup that can easily be used as a starter. Double the portion and you get an equally delicious main course. To make it be extra nice, then add a splash of champagne just before serving and preferably while the soup is standing in front of the guests, so they can see the sparkling bubbles.
The cream can easily be replaced with skimmed milk, both in soup and mayo.
