Preparation steps
1.
Wash the Jerusalem artichokes well under running water, then dice finely without peeling. Reserve 2-3 unblemished bulbs for making crisps.
2.
Heat the butter and oil in a pan and sweat the onions and sesame seeds. Add the diced Jerusalem artichokes and sweat lightly until softened, 5-6 minutes.
3.
Add the stock, bring to the boil and cook for 12-15 minutes, until the Jerusalem artichokes are soft.
4.
Stir in the milk and cream and return to a simmer, and then puree and pass through a sieve. Season with salt and pepper and add mace and ground cumin to taste.
5.
Peel the reserved artichokes and slice very thinly, using a mandolin vegetable slicer if available.
6.
Heat the oil in a deep-fat fryer to 170°C | 325F, and fry the artichoke crisps until crisp and brown. Drain on kitchen paper.
7.
Ladle the soup into bowls and serve garnished with Jerusalem artichoke crisps and sesame seeds.
