Minestrone Soup-connoisseur Style
The perfect minestrone soup-connoisseur style recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.
- 1 piece Kohlrabi fresh, approx. 120 gr.
- 1 piece Zucchini, about 150 gr.
- 3 piece Tomatoes, about 140 gr.
- 2 piece Carrots, about 120 gr.
- 1 piece Onion, about 100 gr.
- 4 piece Potatoes, about 140 gr.
- 1 piece Chinese garlic
- 200 g Sugar snap
- 200 g Young beans
- Olive oil
- Butter
- 1500 ml Vegetable broth
- 3 piece Bay leaves
- 1 tsp Dried oregano
- 1 tsp Sage dried
- Black pepper from the mill
- Nutmeg
- 100 g Soup noodles to your taste
- 100 g Grana Padano Parmesan
- 100 g Basil
- Finely cut the young leafy greens from the kohlrabi, peel the tuber and cut into small cubes. Cut the ends of the zucchini, cut in half, cut lengthways into strips and dice. Peel and halve the tomatoes and cut out the stalk, then roughly dice. Peel the carrots and cut into thin slices. Peel and dice the potatoes. Peel the onion, cut in half, slice and then dice, peel the knobi and cut in half. Cut off the ends of the snow peas and beans and then cut into pieces about 1 cm long.
- Heat the butter and olive oil in a large saucepan and first sweat the onions with the garlic until they are translucent. Now add the remaining vegetables and sweat everything well while stirring, then deglaze with the hot vegetable stock. Now add the herbs, a good amount of pepper and simmer the soup on a low heat, add the noodles after about 15 minutes and continue to simmer until the vegetables still bite. (The trick here is to cut the vegetables, which take a little longer to cook through, into smaller cubes, so you can put everything in the pot at the same time and then everything is ready at the same time) … all just a matter of practice;)))
- In the meantime we cut a few leaves of basil into small pieces. When the vegetables have a “bite” we fish out the bay leaves and taste again with … salt? .. pepper & some nutmeg. Then fold in the cut basil and heat briefly.
- Put the finished soup in a soup cup, grate some Parmesan cheese over it and now ….. enjoy your meal …..
