Heat the oil and butter in a large pan. Add the onion and cook over a medium heat, stirring often, until soft but not coloured. Stir in the celery and potatoes, cover and cook over a low heat for 3 minutes.

Add the stock and bring to the boil. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes.

Stir in the peas and mint and bring back to the boil. Simmer gently for 4 minutes.

Blitz with a hand-held blender or processor until almost smooth.

Season with black pepper and stir in the crème fraîche. Return to the pan and reheat. Serve with crusty bread.
