Category:     Soups and Broths

Description:
Delicious, benefits from the addition of 2 tablespoons of dry sherry but it's not necessary ;-). Suitable for Gatherers too!

Orange: contains an avoid in a primary ingredient.



Ingredient list:
  • 1 ounce ghee or compliant Oil
  • 2 large onions, finely chopped
  • 750g/1 1/2lbs courgettes/zucchini, finely chopped (I grate them with the magimix, peel them if they are large as the skin can taste bitter)
  • 1 1/2 pints of compliant stock for your BT or GT
  • 1 bouquet garni (bay leaf, thyme and parsley wrapped in cheesecloth)
  • sea salt

    Optional:

    1 ounce creamy cheese (cottage, farmer, paneer, ricotta) beaten and mixed with a little water to make the consistency of single cream.


How to make it:
  • Melt the Ghee or oil in a pan and gently fry the onions for five minutes
  • Add the courgettes/zucchini and cook gently for another ten minutes.
  • Add the stock, seasonings and bouquet garni.
  • Bring to the boil and then simmer until the vegetables are very tender (30 minutes).
  • Remove the bouquet garni, cool the soup and then either sieve or blend until smooth. Reheat gently.
  • Stir the beaten cheese into the soup (if using) and serve. Garnish with a little chopped parsley or thyme.
