Ingredients: - 7-8 medium potatoes - 1 zucchini - 2 large tomatoes - 2 dried onions - 1 green onion - 2 carrots - 1 parsnip - 1 small celery - 1 bunch parsley - 1 bunch dill - 200-300 ml stock (or to taste) - salt to taste - water (about 4 liters) - cream for serving Preparation: 1- Start by bringing 4 quarts of water to a boil in a large pot. Add a teaspoon of salt to intensify the flavors of the vegetables. Wait until they reach boiling point. 2. When the water starts to boil, add the finely chopped onion. This will add a flavorful base to the soup. Next, peel the carrots, celery and parsnips, grate them through a large grater and add them to the pot. Leave to simmer for 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables start to soften. 3. Wash and dice the tomatoes, then add them to the pot. They will add freshness and acidity to the soup. 4. Peel and dice the potatoes. Also peel and dice the courgette. Add them to the pot, along with half the amount of parsley and dill. These herbs will give the soup a great flavor. Let everything simmer for about 15-20 minutes, or until the vegetables are cooked through. 5. Meanwhile, prepare the cream. In a separate bowl, take a few tablespoons of the stock and pour it over the cream, stirring gently to avoid curdling. This is an important technique to get a creamy texture in the end. 6. When the vegetables are cooked, pour the cream mixture into the stock pot, stirring well. This step will give the soup a rich flavor. 7. Add the stock, adjusting the amount according to personal preference for acidity. Let the broth simmer for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to combine. 8. Turn off the heat and stir in the remaining parsley and dill, covering the pot with a lid. This step allows the soup to "rest" and the flavors to intensify. 9. Serve the sweet potato soup with warm cream, sprinkled with a little fresh parsley on top. Serve with a slice of fresh bread to soak up all the goodness. Practical tips: - Use fresh and seasonal vegetables for best results. The taste will be incomparable! - If you want a spicier version, add a finely chopped chili pepper during preparation. - Experiment with different aromatic herbs, such as dill or thyme, to customize the flavor of the soup. - If you have extra celery or parsnip roots, feel free to add them to the soup to enrich the taste.
