  1. Dice the bacon and place in the blender jug with the oil, then brown using the roast button. Transfer the bacon to another container and clean the blender jug.
  2. Peel the asparagus and cut into 4-cm lengths (leaving the tips intact). Peel and finely dice the potato and onion. Fill the blender jug with 700 ml water; add the vegetable stock powder; place the asparagus, potato and onion in the cooking pot; close the lid; and steam the vegetables for 12 minutes/steamer button.

Return this to the blender jug. Keeping the asparagus tips to one side, add the diced potato and onion, cream and cornflour to the blender jug and mix for 20 seconds/speed setting 4. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 10 minutes/100 °C/speed setting 2. Add the bacon and asparagus tips and cook for another 3 minutes/100 °C/speed setting 2/reverse button.
