Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat oil in a heavy saucepan. Add onion and cook until the onion is translucent but not brown.

  2. Step 2

    Wash sorrel leaves and add to the pan with moisture still clinging to them. Cover tightly and cook over low heat until the sorrel is wilted and has turned a dull olive green.

  3. Step 3

    Place contents of the pan in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth. Add tomatoes and blend until smooth.

  4. Step 4

    Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cream. Season to taste with salt and pepper and chill thoroughly before serving. Garnish each serving with chopped chives.
