Ingredients

- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 pound frozen shelled edamame
- 1 russet potato, peeled and diced
- 6 cup water
- ½ cup cubes black forest ham
- 2 cup baby spinach
- 4 ounce shiitake mushrooms

Directions
- For the soup: In a medium-sized pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add 6 cups of water to the pot. Add the potato and the edamame and cover the pot with a lid. Bring the water to a boil, then remove the lid and simmer until the vegetables are tender (15 to 20 minutes). Season with salt and pepper. Blend the soup and cover it to keep it warm.
- For the topping: In a medium skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add the small cubes of black forest ham and shiitake mushrooms. Cook for about 5 minutes and then add the spinach. Remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper.
- To serve: Reheat the soup a little bit and pour into 4 bowls. Use a spoon to add the mushrooms, ham, and spinach mix.
