Mashed zucchini and potato soup

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to cook zucchini and potato soup? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. The broth can be used vegetable, chicken or meat. Peel potatoes, garlic, carrots and onions and rinse well from dirt in running water.

2. Step 2:

   

   Pour the soup broth into a saucepan, put on fire and bring to a boil. It is not necessary to boil the whole broth at once. Leave a little separately, in case the finished soup turns out thicker than you would like. You can then add it to the finished dish. Cut the peeled potatoes into pieces and add to the boiling broth. Leave it to cook.

3. Step 3:

   

   Wash the squash, cut off the tails and peel. If the zucchini is young, then you can use the entire part of the zucchini. If the zucchini is already very adult, then it is necessary to remove the core from it, in the form of bones. Cut the peeled zucchini into cubes. Onions and carrots, also, chop a little. The size is not particularly important, so then everything will be crushed with a blender.

4. Step 4:

   

   Heat the frying pan to a hot state, pour a little vegetable oil and fry the chopped onions and carrots for 3-4 minutes.

5. Step 5:

   

   Then add the sliced zucchini to the pan. Fry everything together for another 4-5 minutes.

7. Step 6:

   

   Then put all the fried vegetables in a saucepan with the potatoes.

8. Step 7:

   

   Bring everything to a boil and cook over low heat for 15 minutes. Add a little salt and spices to taste.

9. Step 8:

   

   Then pour the entire contents of the pan into a blender, add the peeled garlic and grind all the ingredients into a homogeneous mass.

10. Step 9:

    

    Pour the mashed soup back into the pan and pour in the cream. Mix it up. If necessary, you can add a little more broth. Be guided by the consistency of the soup, which is more to your taste. Bring the soup to a boil and remove from the heat.

11. Step 10:

    

    Ready-made cream soup of zucchini and potatoes is best served immediately hot. To supplement, dry the bread or loaf, cut into cubes, in a hot frying pan. Add crackers to the soup, immediately before serving, so that they do not have time to get wet. Enjoy your meal!
