Family Minestrone Soup | Michela Chiappa


hi I’m Michaela and I am gonna show you
the best recipe for minestrone soup for
the family and even if you don’t
consider yourself to be a very good
Kurkure you get nervous in the kitchen
this is almost foolproof it’s so simple
anyone should be able to do it so I’ve
picked some veggies that are gonna roast
well together with the same amount of
time so all you need let’s get a nice
big roasting tray and you want to set
your oven at about 200 degrees Celsius
so we’re gonna start with our onion just
peel it and top and tail it whole on the
train whole beef tomato two celery
sticks top and tail and they go to
carrots top and tail I told you this is
gonna be easy cause yet top in two then
it goes nice sweet potato and I’m just
gonna have that and put that in whole
and then the final bit is a nice juicy
butternut squash brilliant for soups
make sure your hands are nicely out of
the way sharp knife and cut it in half
want to take the top off it as well all
these veggies are getting blitzed
together the skin can stay on it’s all
full of goodness and then because this
is gonna take a bit longer to roast
we’re gonna have that lengthways that
goes straight into your roasting tray
just drizzle them with a good glug of
olive oil and into the oven they go
about 200 degrees Celsius time to get
our veggies
we go for goes through nicely all of
them are nice and soft so what you need
to do now is blitz this up but start
with those and I’m going to add a splash
of boiling water just to loosen it to
get it going you could use your stock
but don’t forget if you’re feeding this
to a baby you want to really keep the
salt content to a minimum if any so
we’ll just add a little bit of boiling
water and the stock can come for the
adults and this is going to be ready
baby so there we go that hasn’t got any
salt in it look around to the colour
loads of goodness veggies for your
little baby already done so I’m gonna
spoon some of that out now this is gonna
be for the little baby that’s being
weaned onto the toddlers and the adults
this is now gonna go into saucepan and
into that we’re gonna add about 500
milliliters of vegetable stock and for
the adults I’m gonna season it with some
salt and pepper and now my tip grab some
spaghetti or linguine and literally you
often get them at the bottom of a packet
just to tear them off into like little
equal chunks size is roughly be throw
that in and that just gives a real
heartiness
so this minestrone soup
this is just gonna go on the heat now
for that time whatever the pasta cooking
time is usually about 10 to 12 minutes
on the heat and we’re ready to eat it’s
all cooked is ready to serve
this smells absolutely divine now I’m
gonna get some for toddlers and the kids
which has got the lovely pasta this
quantity is enough for a family of
probably about six so obviously if
you’ve got a smaller family it’s a
brilliant one to freeze I can’t do
without that bit of Parmesan cheese I’m
gonna keep this off the baby but for me
a generous amount of parmesan on the top
let’s have a taste
mmm there is nothing better than a
steaming bowl of minestrone soup and
especially for those kids who might be
picky about certain veggies they won’t
really know what’s gone into this and
they love it
