articol scris de Guvi blog guvi-guvi.blogspot.com
Mi-am adus aminte ca n-am mai trecut de multisor pe la restaurantul "Olive Garden" si mi s-a facut pofta de supa lor toscana.
I remembered I haven't been in a while to the "Olive Garden" and I was missing their Tuscan soup. I found a very nice recipe from Maria Apascaritei, and I decided to put it here for you, too.
Asadar: o ceapa mijlocie, maruntita, cam 750 gr cartofi, curatati si taiati cubulete, aproximativ 300 gr carne de carnati proaspeti (carnea scoasa din mat), o lingura de faina, un catel de usturoi dat pe razatoare, oregano, cimbru proaspat, smantana, sare si piper, zeama de lamaie, 2 linguri ulei, 1 lingura unt, 250 ml lapte, 3 litri apa sau supa de legume
So: one medium onion, finely chopped, about 1.5 lbs potatoes, cleaned and cubed, about 3/4 lbs Italian sweet sausage (casings removed), one tablespoon flour, one garlic clove, grated, oregano, fresh thyme, sour cream, salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon butter, 1 cup milk, 3 quarts water or vegetable stock
heat the oil and butter in a pot
add the onion, garlic and sausage meat, allow the meat to brown a little bit
adaugati cartofii cubulete si faina
add the diced potatoes and the flour
turnati si laptele, amestecand mereu
add the milk, stirring to combine
reduce the heat, add the water or vegetable stock, oregano, thyme, salt, pepper, mix very well and bring to a boil on low heat
let it boil for about 25 minutes, until the potatoes are done, add about 2 tablespoons of sour cream and lemon juice to taste, then serve
Pofta mare!
Enjoy!
