Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 tablespoons olive oil
2 large potatos
1 small carrot
1 piece of celery stalk (approx. 10 cm long)
Some parsley
A quarter of a small onion
1 clove of garlic
4 tablespoons of good tomato souce
1 cup risotto rice
Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Cut the potatos in small cubes or, for a faster and more cremy soup, into small, very thin squares. Chop onion, garlic, carrot, celery and parsely into a very very thin mix known in Rome as "battuto", beaten. In a deep pot heat the oil, add the chopped vegetables and stir for a few seconds. Add the tomato souce and salt if needed, and let it cook for a couple of minutes until it fries. Pour at least 4 cups of water and, when it boils, add the potatoes. Let the soup cook for a few minutes until the potatoes are tender, then add the rice. Bring the soup to the table when the rice is still a bit hard, and let people add freshly grated parmigiano.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh vegetables, flavorful broth, and tender rice and potatoes will make a big difference in the final soup.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: You want them to retain their texture and nutrients.
  • Use a variety of spices and herbs: This will add depth and complexity to the soup.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make potato and rice soup, so feel free to adjust the ingredients and seasonings to your liking.
  • Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or a green salad: This will make a complete and satisfying meal.
