Method
Peel and dice the onion and roughly chop the cucumbers.
Melt the butter in a large pan and sauté the onions over a medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes, or until softened.
Add the cucumber, reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for 5 minutes.
Add the stock, bring to the boil then reduce the heat again. Season well with sea salt and black pepper, and leave to simmer for 5 minutes.
Chop and add the chives and parsley leaves, squeeze in the lemon juice and cook for a further 5 minutes.
Transfer to a blender and purée until smooth (in batches, if necessary).
Place the soup in a bowl, allow to cool at room temperature, then refrigerate until cold.
