It pretty much makes itself, and you can, like I do, chop the veggies the evening before. (which feels like an awesome idea that next day when you come home from work and will start cooking) And the best: it is fresh (you know exactly what you have put in there), healthy, and too tasty. That's what I think anyway.
I hope you will give it a try.
You need (for 2-4 persons):
4 chopped cloves of garlic
2 chopped onions
1 cauliflower, chopped in small pieces
1 broccoli, chopped in small pieces
(NB! you can replace the vegetables with tomatoes or other favorite vegetables)Salt, pepper
4 chopped cloves of garlic
2 chopped onions
1 cauliflower, chopped in small pieces
1 broccoli, chopped in small pieces
(NB! you can replace the vegetables with tomatoes or other favorite vegetables)Salt, pepper
1 spoon butter, 1 spoon oil
Cream and/or yogurt
In cauliflower/broccoli soup: add some dill and parsley
In tomato soup: add some chili
You do:
Fry the garlic and onion in butter/oil until they are golden. Add the chopped vegetables.
Pour over 1-2 l water and let boil until the vegetables are soft (10-15 minutes). Use a hand-mixer to mash the vegetables, but if you like, (I do) leave some of the vegetables in small pieces. Towards the end, add a few spoons of cream or yogurt.
Just before serving, lay on a spoon of yogurt in the soup bowl. Decorate with some fresh dill or parsley. Serve with brown bread.

DeleteDearest Eli,
ReplyDeleteOh, that sounds and even more so, LOOKS like a delicious soup!
Yes, I love soup with bread; as a meal. Just on Monday I made spicy corn and lentil soup as a vegetarian meal. Love it when the weather gets cooler.
It was a tip from a blogger friend that lives in Kuwait and you find it here in my post: http://mariettesbacktobasics.blogspot.com/2012/06/my-lace-crocheted-placemats.html
Sending you hugs,
Mariette
Oh, I love lentil soup too, will check up that recipe. Thanks for sharing and for your always so kind encouragements, dear Mariette:-)
DeleteThis sounds so tasty and healthy, and even better - my kind of simple recipe. Thanks for sharing this, Eli!
ReplyDeleteHappy you liked it, dear Beloo:-) Thank you
DeleteI love Soups! However, we rarely prepare @home. Mostly from Hotels.
ReplyDeleteOh, that sounds nice:-) Thanks for visiting
DeleteSoups are my favourite creative outlet, Eli. I haven't tried including yoghurt in them. Now that's something I'm certainly going to try out.
ReplyDeleteI hope you will like it. Thanks for visiting dear friend:-)
DeleteI'm tired of tomato soup. This seems like a good change. Yoghurt would give quite a different flavour.
ReplyDeleteI hope you'll like it dear Tulika. Hugs
DeleteMy vegetable soup is quite similar, and ever changing as there is no actual recipe. I never added the yogurt though. I think I will give it a try. Sounds delicious and adds a bit of protein.
ReplyDeleteI hope you will like it. Thanks a lot for sharing and visiting dear Rhonda:-)
