Add the milk, bring back to the boil and then simmer until it is tender, for about 40-60 minutes.
Take it off the heat, cool a little, then sieve or liquidize until it is very smooth.
Blend the flour and the butter into a firm paste.
Return the soup to the heat and drop small pieces of the butter paste into it, stirring all the time.
Simmer gently until the soup has thickened slightly.
Remove from the heat and add the cream, salt, pepper and nutmeg.
Reheat gently but do not boil.
