Zucchini Soup

 

I decided to make some zucchini soup.  Here it is all blended with a hand blender.

Here is my recipe.  I have made enough soups now that I don't even need a recipe.

4 zucchinis cut into segments

2-3 cloves garlic minced

1/2 onion chopped

bunch of celery leaves chopped (or 2 stalks celery chopped)

1 carrot chopped

1 bouillon cube

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

1 tsp dried basil

2 gr onions diced

2-3 slices ginger (optional)

1 potato peeled and cut into 4 pieces

6-7 c water

1 tbs unsalted butter

2 tbs olive oil

2 tbs lemon juice

Saute onions, carrots, celery, ginger in olive oil and butter.  When softened, add garlic.  Add salt, pepper, basil, lemon juice.  Add water, zucchini, potato.  Simmer 30 minutes.  I let it cool down a bit then blended the soup with a hand blender.
