Tip
If you don't want to make your own aioli, just use some non-flavored sour cream or herb butter. Sprinkle with extra parsley for an extra pop of color!
Make the soup even more appetizing by topping it with some shrimps right before serving.

Hi Ian!
Thank you! Fixed it now.
a) when the soup is wwell cooked take it off the stove and let it cool down a bit, than add 2-3 tablespoons of soup to the sour cream and mix it in before you pour it into the soup
b) use creme fraiche instead - it is more fatty but also more stable in hot dishes
Bonne chance!
Astrid
