Method of cooking vegetable soup-puree with oat bran in chicken broth
To begin, cook chicken broth. For him, I advise you to take meat with bones, fit all parts of the chicken, except, perhaps, the breast. Put the chicken cut into large pieces in a soup pot, pour 2 liters of cold water, add a bunch of parsley, bay leaves, 5 peas black pepper and salt. After boiling, boil on a quiet fire for 45-50 minutes.
We remove scale. From the finished broth gently remove the fat. It is convenient to remove it from the cooled dish, but, by showing persistence, you can remove the greasy layer from the hot one almost without residue.
While the chicken is being cooked, we will prepare the vegetables. Scrape carrots, cut into slices half a centimeter thick.
Peeled potatoes are cut into cubes 1.5x1.5 centimeters.
Celery stalks cut into small cubes. Onions clean from the husk, cut into four parts.
Put the tomatoes in boiling water for 30 seconds. We shift in a bowl with ice water. Make a cut with a sharp knife, peel, cut the tomatoes in half. We clean sweet pepper from seeds, cut into cubes. Cut off the stem, cut the membrane with green chili seeds, cut finely. If chili is hot, then half of the pod is enough; ordinary bitter pepper can be put whole, it will not spoil the taste.
Squashes or squash with undeveloped seeds cut into small cubes. Young vegetables can be cooked with the peel, I advise you to peel the mature ones, since their skin becomes hard and not edible.
We take pieces of chicken out of broth, throw chopped vegetables into the pan. Add ready seasoning for soup or spice to taste.
When the soup starts to boil again, reduce the heat to minimum, close the lid, cook for about 25 minutes until all the vegetables are soft.
After 25 minutes, pour oat bran, stir, cook 10 minutes over low heat.
Chop up the ready soup with a blender to a smooth state (approximately 2 minutes at medium speed).
Sprinkle with fresh greens, serve hot with a slice of whole grain bread or oatmeal bread.
Enjoy your meal!
