Healthy Vegetable Soup
Okay, I know that some people don’t think much of soup, but if it’s made my way, I promise you that you will go back to the pot for more and complain when it’s all gone. My granny is the real expert here, and the problem is that when she makes a soup it’s always slightly differrent because she never uses an exact recipe. My mom though has perfected a recipe that we all love, and that I can easily make myself.
You’ll need:
To make 6 cups of soup
Cooking time-40 minutes
Two red/white potatoes
One sweet potato
Three celery sticks
Half an onion
One big clove of garlic
Half cup of rice vermicelli
2 tbsp of vegetable oil
Salt and pepper to taste
One tablespoon of mushroom soup consume
One tablespoon of chicken flavored soup consume
10 cups of water.
How to:
I believe in doing all the chopping ahead of time, it’ll make the whole process very quick and easy. You’ll need to peel the potatoes and then dice them. Do the same for the celery and the onion. Crush the garlic and sauté it together with the onion and vegetable oil until golden brown. Add the rest of the chopped vegetables and pour in the water, sprinkle the mushroom consume and the chicken consume into the pot. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to medium/low, cover the pot and cook for about 30 minutes. Add the rice vermicelli and salt and pepper to taste, and cook for an additional ten minutes. Usually the soup should be ready after 40 minutes but you should always spoon out a potato and see whether it is soft.
