WIKI NOTE: The word soup comes from French soupe ("soup", "broth"), which comes through Vulgar Latin suppa ("bread soaked in broth") from a Germanic source, from which also comes the word "sop", a piece of bread used to soak up soup or a thick stew.
WINTER SOUP
YOU WILL NEED: 2 medium potatoes
1 or 2 cloves garlic, to taste
A half onion
1 leek (white part)
A generous splash (about 50g) of extra virgin olive oil or olive oil, to taste
A bunch of parsley
Salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
Water (to boil)
LET´S COOK!
1. Wash the vegetables well. Peel potatoes, leek, onion and garlic. Cut the potatoes into big pieces. Chop the onion, leek and garlic.
2. Heat the olive oil in the pot. Saute the onion, leek, and garlic until transparent.
3. Add the big pieces of potatoes. Stir for several minutes with the rest of the ingredients.
4. Cover with water (the water has to exceed a couple of fingers the ingredients) and cook the vegetables for approx. 20 minutes. When the veggies are tender, turn off the kitchen and remove the pot from heat.
5. Mix everything with the blender until it is the consistency of a soup. Add black pepper and salt, to taste.
NOTE: If the texture of the soup is too liquid, add a few tablespoons of cornstarch (corn flour refined).
6. Serve the soup warm. Chop a bunch of parsley and sprinkle it on the top of the soup plate. Add some crunchy popcorn because it makes the soup more yummy, yummy!
