Add oil or butter and saute 3 min/Varoma/speed 1.
Add potato, carrot, nettles, water, stock, pepper and cook 20 mins/100C/speed 1. (To avoid overloading the Thermomix, add the nettles in batches during cooking.)

This is delicious! I had nettles pop up in my garden and fought for months to get rid of them. I finally decided to try to use them, glad I did. Next time I won't add so much water, as I prefer a thicker soup.
