Instructions
Peel and cut the onion into a rough 1cm (½") dice.
Trim the woody base off the fennel bulb and remove any fennel fronds (these are great for garnish), then cut the bulb into a rough 1cm (½") dice.
Peel the potato and cut it into a 1cm (½") dice.
Heat a 20cm or 8" saucepan over a medium heat and add the olive oil, toss in the onion and fennel, then cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the diced potato, pour in the vegetable stock, add a lid, and cook until the fennel is tender; this will take around 20 minutes.
Remove the lid, add the spinach and fresh tarragon and cook until the spinach has completely wilted, this will take 2-3 minutes.
Transfer to a blender and blitz until smooth and serve.
