Zucchini soup with cream

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to cook zucchini soup with cream? Prepare the necessary products. Instead of olive oil, any odorless vegetable oil is suitable.

2. Step 2:

   

   Peel the carrots previously washed in water with a brush, cut them arbitrarily, but not too large. Peel and chop the onion as well. The form of slicing vegetables in this case does not matter, since they will be crushed during cooking.

3. Step 3:

   

   Which zucchini will work best? Choose young fruits with tender skins. Wash them and peel them. It is not necessary to cut off a very thin skin. If you use more mature zucchini, cut off the rough peel and cut out the middle with the seeds. Cut the squash into small slices.

4. Step 4:

   

   In a frying pan with olive oil, add chopped carrots and onions, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes.

5. Step 5:

   

   Put the prepared zucchini in the pan, mix. If necessary, add a couple of tablespoons of water. Simmer the vegetables over medium heat, stirring, until half cooked.

6. Step 6:

   

   Put the vegetables in a suitable-sized saucepan. Pour hot water so that it only slightly covers the vegetables. Cook at a moderate boil until the vegetables are soft. The amount of water specified in the recipe can be reduced or increased at your request, depending on whether you want to get a thick or more liquid soup.

8. Step 7:

   

   Remove the pan from the stove. Grind the hot vegetable mass with an immersion blender to a puree-like state. Do it carefully so as not to get burned.

9. Step 8:

   

   Bring the vegetable puree to a boil over low heat. Add salt, add nutmeg, mix.
