First, peel and finely dice the onion. Scrape and slice the carrots, if necessary. Roughly dice the bell pepper, peel the celery and potatoes, and dice them as well.

Add the carrots and celery and sauté them as well. Sauté the potatoes and bell pepper, then add the zucchini slices and leek. Pour in the hot stock and simmer with the lid on over low heat for about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, slowly fry the sausage cubes in a pan. Chop the marjoram and parsley.
