Perfect Soup
Some of the best recipes seems to come from experimenting with the things you actually have available than trying to follow an established formula. This soup came from just this. I wasn’t feeling too well recently, not really feeling like eating and certainly not cooking. I looked around the kitchen to see what was available. I found: a courgette, some carrots, a leak and a sweat potato.
I pealed all, chopped into small pieces, boiled water, added a pinch of salt, put them all together and it turned out to be just what my system needed. The proportions I use are:
1 Courgette (aka Zucchini)
6 Carrots Medium size
1 Leak
1 Sweat potato
Pinch of Salt…you can always add but you can’t take away.
Add all the vegetables to a pot and cover with water. Once you have brought the water to boiled, you can cook for between 20 to 30 minutes on a lower fire.
I like my soup with chunks of vegetables, although you may want to zip through a machine.
