- 4 C vegetable stock
- 1 large bunch of ramson (wild garlic), chopped

- 1 1/2 C cooked chickpeas
- 1 tbsp lemon juice

Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Sauté onion and celery for about 5 minutes until soft. Then add garlic and stir until fragrant.
- Add potatoes followed by vegetable stock and bring everything to a boil. Season with salt, cover, lower the heat and simmer for 20 minutes until potatoes are soft and fall apart.
- Meanwhile heat vegan butter in a skillet over medium heat. Quickly sauté chopped ramson just until it’s slightly wilted to mellow out its pungent garlicky flavor.

- Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if needed. Switch off the heat and serve.
