Ingredients
Vichyssoise
Lemon Cream
Sea Urchin and Oysters

Vichysoisse
To Serve
Ladle three-quarters of a cup of the vichyssoise into four soup bowls, then garnish with the sea urchin roe and the oysters. Scoop a spoonful of lemon cream into the centre of each bowl and sprinkle with chives and cucumber.
