If you have lots to do (crafting, knitting, crocheting, working with polymer clay or the like ;-)), it is great if you quickly get something to eat if you get hungry.
Furthermore it’s good if the food is somewhat healthy.
Rcently I tried something that I want to present now:
Quick Vegetable Soup
- Ingredients:
- packet soup or the like that is quickly done
- I had a wild mushroom soup that had to be mixed with 3/4 l cold water, boiled up and then simmer at low heat for five minutes, other quick soups work also, then you must adapt the preparation
- vegetables
- I had an onion, a carrot and a zucchini
- a little bit of oil
- Preparation:
- Dice the onion and fry softly until translucent.
- In the meantime dice the other vegetables, too and set aside the different sorts.
- It is a matter of setting apart the vegetables that only need five minutes on low temperature (zucchini, sweet pepper, broccoli etc) from those that need rather ten minutes (e.g. carrots, aubergins).
- Fill some of the water that is needed for the packet soup into the onions, add the carrot dices and simmer on low heat for five minutes.
- You treat thus first the 10-minute-vegetables.
- Add the rest of the water mixed with the packet soup and the 5-minute-vegetables and let simmer on low heat for another five minutes – done.
The soup was really tasty and eaten faster than I was able to take photos ;-)
And if you use a different ready-to-serve soup every time (tomato soup, glass noodle soup or, if you eat meat, Chinese sweet-and-sour soup and oxtail soup), you have every time a completely different taste with the same recipe ;-)
