| Courgette & Onion Soup Toppers |
| A delicious addition to a bowl of home-made soup. Inspired by a recipe in Michael van Straten’s book “Super Soups”.
|
| Ingredients |
150 gm wholemeal flour
200 gm courgettes, topped and tailed
10 gm flatleaf parsley
Freshly ground black pepper
1 egg
6 Tbsp olive oil for frying
|
| Method |
Add/weigh the flour, courgettes in chunks, parsley and pepper into the Thermomix bowl. Press the Turbo button as a pulse button several times to chop the courgettes and parsley into the flour.
Add the egg. Knead 30 seconds on dough setting. Tip the dough out and drop teaspoons into the hot olive oil to fry. Gently sauté for two to three minutes each side until crispy.
Float the hot soup toppers on the soup just as you are serving it.

| Janie's Tip: |
If your soup isn't quite ready, keep soup toppers warm for a few minutes by putting them onto a plate covered with two layers of kitchen roll paper in a low oven. (Aga Warming or Simmering Oven, or 100 degrees C/ 200 degrees F/ gas mark low.)
