soup and scenery

Here is some scenery to prove it is West Coast Kitchen. We paid a vist to Lake Brunner the other weekend, lovely, the new Wanaka perhaps? Lunch was a picnic near the lake of alphabet soup featuring homegrown vegetables and rosemary bread sticks. Good comfort food.

Alphabet soup

Soften a chopped onion and garlic in some olive oil. Add diced carrot, potato, pumpkin or vegetabes as desired, and a jar of tomato passata. Pour over a couple of cups of vege or chicken stock and simmer for twenty minutes or so unil the potatoes are nearly cooked through. Add a handful of 'alphabeto' pasta and some diced courgettes and simmer until pasta is cooked. Stir through shredded silverbeet or spinach to finish.
