Green living

Being a vegetarian is not so boring. In this hot summer time you can try something light and green as a green soup.

You will need 1 yellow onion, 3 medium-sized zucchinis, 2 parsnips, 3.5 oz fava beans, shelled (frozen when not fresh), salt and pepper, fresh coriander, olive oil, 3 cups water, a few pink radishes.

To prepare the soup, take a large thick-bottomed pot and cook the onion in 2 Tbsp olive oil for a few min. Peel the parsnips. Wash the zucchinis and dice all vegetables coarsely. Add them to the onions and cook for 5 min. Cover with the water and continue to cook for 20 min, or until all vegetables are tender. Add the fava beans and continue to cook for 5 min. Mix your soup with a hand mixer or food processor. Add the chopped coriander, and season with salt and pepper. Serve with a grated pink radish (and cream if you like).

You see it is very easy to prepare. Bon appetit!
