  • 5 Carrot
  • 1 small Leek
  • 5 Potatoes
  • 6 stalks Celery
  • 100 g Peas, dried

  • 4 tbsp Small soup noodles, of your choice
  • 2 sprigs Thyme
  • 2 sprigs Flat leaf parsley
  • Salt
  • Black pepper from the mill
  • Porcini mushroom powder
  • Grated Pecorino

Instructions
 

  • Soak the beans and peas overnight.
  • Peel the tomatoes and cut them into bite-sized pieces. Peel the onion and garlic and cut into small cubes. Peel the carrot, leek, celery and potatoes and cut into bite-sized pieces. Pour off the soaked beans and peas, rinse with cold water and drain. Pluck the leaves from the parsley and cut into small pieces.
  • Heat the olive oil and sweat the onion and garlic cubes well in it. Now add all the vegetables and sweat everything just as well.
  • Then deglaze with the hot vegetable stock, add the pasta, beans and peas as well as the herbs and season with a little pepper, salt and porcini mushroom powder. Then simmer on a low flame for a good 30 minutes until the vegetables still have "bite". Then turn off the stove, put the tomatoes in, put the lid on and let them stand for another 30 minutes.
  • Then fish out the thyme stalks and season again with the spices.
  • Put the finished soup in a soup cup, sprinkle with freshly grated pecorino cheese ..... enjoy your meal .....
  • Basic recipe for my "grainy vegetable broth"
  • I would be very happy if everyone would leave a nice comment on the recipe. Critical or suggestions are also very welcome, because I only cook with water. The soup connoisseur thanks you in advance.
