Notes / Variations Prefer something lighter? Replace the Heks’nkaas with a splash of cream or yoghurt (but do not boil it). Or leave out the cheese and cream altogether. That works too. For extra heat: finish with chilli flakes or a pinch of cayenne. Nice finishing touches: croutons or an extra spoonful of Heks’nkaas in the bowl. Or, for children and grown-up children ;-) little meatballs! All soups [wpupg-grid id="soepen"]
