Cooking method

  • Mashed potato, celery and zucchini soup with basilPeel and wash the vegetables. Cut potatoes, zucchini into small cubes. Celery, if petioled, then cut into slices across, and the root - into cubes. Garlic slices. Leek rings. If using onions, cut them into cubes.
    Mashed potato, celery and zucchini soup with basilIf you have a soup cooker and you entrust the last stage of soup cooking to her, then take a frying pan. If there is no soup cooker, then take a saucepan with a thick bottom. Heat the oil mixture in a skillet / pot. Put the onion and fry until soft.

    Mashed potato, celery and zucchini soup with basilAdd dry basil and heat for a minute. If basil is not available, Caucasian or Italian herbal mixtures can be used. Basil is usually present in them. And those found in mixes like oregano or cilantro also sound good with our soup set.
    Mashed potato, celery and zucchini soup with basilPour vegetables with water or broth. I pre-transfer to the Vitek soup cooker. Add salt and pepper to taste. Switch on the Soup-puree mode. In a saucepan, let the contents boil and cook over low heat for 15-20 minutes, until all the ingredients are ready. Purée the soup with a hand blender. The soup cooker will do this on its own.

Note

With the exception of butter, the soup is great for fasting.

Someone will say that in the presence of a soup cooker, frying vegetables for puree soup is pampering. You can put everything in a soup cooker bowl, turn on the mode and forget about everything for 25-30 minutes. And it might be right. But in my purely subjective taste, it tastes better with frying. Products acquire a special taste during frying, they have time to especially open up and make friends with each other. No, of course I cook soups in a soup cooker using Light technology, on vacation, for example. But when possible, I always fry the ingredients for mashed soups. I do not wish for this time.

Ksenia, Ksyusha, a wonderful recipe! I agree completely about frying vegetables in the presence of a soup cooker. The taste is very different with and without roasting.

Fir-trees, I saw such a thing for cutting breadsticks here in Teskom, I did not buy it, but in the evening I began to suffer that I wouldn’t have bought a bald for such soups.

interesting idea with roasting
Lerele, began to fry almost all vegetables for mashed soups, for any recipe. Well, it tastes better for us and that's it. Yes, I spend a little more time, but we gain more in taste. The children began to eat with pleasure. And I don't need more.

I also like it better when vegetables are pre-fried. Not in this particular soup, but in general.

Ksenia, Ksyusha, because the proposed number of ingredients is not designed for a blender soup cooker. True?
I had much less of everything and barely crammed into the soup cooker. And the soup turned out to be very, very tasty! Thank you so much!
I cooked everything according to the rules, with frying .. in my opinion, next time I will put everything raw, so as to smell less
Ksyushk @ -Plushk @
Vika, this amount of ingredients is included in my soup cooker at the highest risk - 1700 ml
drazinka

Ksyushk @ -Plushk @, Ksyushenka, thanks for the soup! Yesterday I cooked sweet and sour zucchini according to Admin-Tanya's recipe. It turned out so delicious. So on the basis of them I will make such a soup, and you will not have to fry (the zucchini and vegetables were pre-fried), all that remains is to add potatoes, celery and spices. I will cook in Ves-24 soup cooker.

cooked zucchini in sweet and sour sauce
I use eggplants, when I am too lazy to bake saezhie, I use cookies in oil.

Ksyushk @ -Plushk @, Ksyusha, thank you for the new taste of the soup! The set of products is the same, but the taste is completely different! True, I did not fry potatoes and zucchini. So I will discover another taste of this soup. I will try not to deviate from your recipe next time. Thank you!

did not fry potatoes
Purely in my opinion, potatoes without roasting and after grinding with a blender give the wrong consistency that is needed. More viscous, but I want airiness. After frying until half cooked, it becomes just like that. But these are my cockroaches.
