Simple Fennel Soup

Simple Fennel Soup

For this delicious and healthy soup, you will need 4 main ingredients: fennel, carrot, onion, garlic, and I assume you have the rest at home. You require less than 50 minutes to make this fantastic soup! Follow the recipe.

Ingredients: simple, total time: 45 min. 4 serving

Tools:

Preparation:

Pour half of the water (600 ml) into a medium saucepan, add 1 teaspoon of salt.
Add washed and peeled carrots and a small part of celery root to cook. Cook for about 15–20 minutes.
When it softened, take it out, then add the fennel cut into strips, and 1 cube of soup. Cook until soft. Remove the softened carrot and celery. Cut the cooked carrot and celery into smaller pieces.
When fennel has softened, add chopped carrots and celery root.
Turn off the heat, then take a stick mixer and blend into a creamy mixture.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan over moderate heat, then add the chopped onion, sauté until it becomes transparent.
Then add finely chopped garlic and fry until fragrant, immediately add butter, mix everything well, simmer for a few minutes, remove from heat.
Immediately add to the blended mixture and mix again with a stick mixer until you get a uniform creamy mixture.
Turn on the heat again and stir, add water as needed depending on the thickness you want, I added 200 ml.
Wait for the first boiling, then turn off the fire. I added very little salt and pepper to the spices. Sprinkle with chopped parsley or celery leaves.
Serve warm.

Buon appetito!

NOTE:

In principle, you don't need to add butter to this soup if you don't want to, I personally think it's nicer and has a brighter and creamier flavor.
You can add vegetables to this soup one piece at a time if you want a smaller amount.
You can also add other vegetables such as parsnips, potatoes, cauliflower, spring onions.
Keep the rest of the soup in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
