Grön ärtsoppa med havresallad och surdegskrutonger

Recept framtaget för Electrolux. Photo Agnes Maltesdotter.

Soppa färdig på ett kick! Att först mixa hela soppan i blendern är ett smart sätt att laga mat snabbt. För en matigare soppa, och för texturernas skull, gillar jag att toppa mina soppor med en liten sallad. Det blir oftast på något kokt sädesslag - ofta står det något färdigkokt i kylskåpet - någon grönsak eller frukt och mycket örter!

Krutonger är perfekt att göra av dagsgammal bröd, och dessutom så håller det sig gott i flera dagar. Testa att blanda oljan med lite riven vitlök innan den ringlas över brödbitarna och rostas för vitlökskrutonger.

Grön ärtsoppa med ingefära, havresallad och surdegskrutonger

4 portioner

Ingredienser

600 gram frysta gröna ärter

1 msk färsk ingefära, riven

1 gul lök

2 vitlöksklyftor

1 näve färsk persilja

7 dl vatten

2 1/2 dl havregrädde

1 tsk äppelcidervinäger

Salt och nymalen svartpeppar

Havresallad

1 1/2 dl

1 rött äpple

1 näve färsk mynta

1 näve färsk persilja

Salt och nymalen svartpeppar

Topping

2 skivor surdegsbröd

1 tsk rapsolja

Salt

Växtbaserad yoghurt

Färsk timjan

Gör såhär

Skala ingefäran, löken och vitlöken. Skär i mindre bitar. Lägg alla ingredienserna till soppan, förutom vinägern, i en blender och mixa till en slät soppa. Häll ner i en kastrull och koka upp, låt sedan sjuda i 10 minuter. Tillsätt mer vatten om den känns för tjock. Smaka av med 1 tsk äppelcidervinäger, salt och peppar.

Koka havreriset enligt anvisning på förpackningen. Finhacka äpplet och örterna till toppongsalladen. Blanda med havreriset. Smaka av med salt och peppar.

Värm ugnen till 175°C. Skär surdegsbrödet i mindre bitar. Blanda med lite olja och en nypa salt. Lägg ut på en bakplåt och rosta tills krutongerna är krispiga och gyllene, ca 10 minuter.

Servera soppan toppad med havresallad, yoghurt och krutonger. Garnera med timjan.

Soup read in no time at all. How? By first mixing all ingredients for your soup until smooth - and then let it simmer for a moment! To get an even more hearty soup I like to make a “topping salad”, often made of any kind of cooked cereal - such as quinoa, spelt or whole oats, together with some veggies and lots of herbs. I always make sure to cook some extra cereals when making other dishes, that way I have some in the fridge for when in the mood for a soup with topping salad!

Croutons is a perfect way to use yesterdays bread, and also crispy croutons stay crispy for some time so make some extra and use for days to come! When making your croutons you can also try to blend your oil with some grated garlic before tossing together with the bread - that way you get garlic roasted croutons - delicious!

Serves 4


Ingredients

600 grams frozen green peas, thawed

2 cm fresh ginger

1 yellow onion

2 garlic cloves

1 handfull parsley

7 dl water

2 1/2 dl oat cream

1 tsp apple cider vinegar

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Oat salad

1 1/2 dl salad whole oats

1 red apple

1 handful fresh mint

1 handful fresh parsley

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Topping

2 slices sourdough bread

1 tsp cold pressed olive oil

Flakey salt

Plant-based yoghurt

Fresh thyme

How to

Creamy celeriac and parsnip soup with almond and parsley

A creamy and warming soup, with a topping which adds both texture and heartiness. Works both for festive dinners and leftover meals!

(Recipe in Swedish below)

Another favourite soup!

I always serve my soups with a yummy “topping salad” for extra texture, flavour and heartiness. A smart thing is to use bits from the soup also on top of if - as in if making a celeriac and parsnip soup like here, but some extra celeriac or parsnip, roast in until lightly crispy and add to the topping salad. My typical topping salad formula would be:

200 gram veggie (same as in the soup) + 1-2 flavours (could be spices, herbs or nut butters) + something crunchy (such as toasted nuts or seeds)

Happy cooking!

Creamy celeriac and parsnip soup with almond and parsley

Serves 4

Ingredients

500 grams celeriac

200 grams parsnip 

1 yellow onion

2 garlic cloves

1,2 liter vegetable stock

2 Tbsp almond butter

1 handfull fresh parsley

2 tsp apple cider vinegar

olive oil

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Topping salad

1 1/2 dl wild rice, or any other cereal such as quinoa / millet / sorghum / spelt / whole wheat (if you have any leftovers at home this is the perfect way to use it. Also, you can use any type of legumes instead, story bought pre-cooked works great!)

200 grams celeriac

1 handful almond flakes

cress

olive oil for roasting

cold pressed olive oil for drizzling

salt and freshly ground black pepper

How to

Start by making the topping salad if you need to cook some wild rice as it takes about 40 minutes. If using already cooked cereals / leftovers or pre-cooked legumes you can do this part when the soup is simmering.

Pre heat the oven 200°C. Cook the wild rice according to instructions on the packaging. Scrub the celeriac carefully, cut in small pieces. Toss with oil and roast in the oven until soft, about 15 minutes. Add the almond flakes the last minute. Toss together wild rice, celeriac and almond. Chop the parsley and add it too. Salt and pepper to taste.

Peel and finely chop onion and garlic, fry in a bit of oil in a saucepan until soft. Scrub the root veggies carefully, cut away any dirty parts and cut the rest in smaller pieces. Add veggies, almond butter and vegetable stock to the saucepan. Bring to a boil and let simmer until veggies are soft, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat, mix until smooth using an immersion blender. Add parsley and vinegar and pulse a few times. Salt and pepper to taste.

Serve the soup topped with the salad and cress. Drizzle with oil.

Ännu en favoritsoppa!

Jag serverar alltid mina soppor med en smarrig “toppingsallad”, både för att ge extra smak och textur men även mer matighet. Ett smart knep är att använda samma grönsak/er som du har i soppan även som topping ovanpå den. Här har jag använt extra rotselleri, som jag tärnat och sedan rostat, tillsammans med lite vildris, örter och rostad mandel. Min typiska toppingsallad följer följande formel:

200 gram rotsak + 2 dl kokt baljväxt eller sädesslag + 1-2 smaksättningar + något crunchigt (exempelvis rostade fröer eller nötter)

Smaklig spis!

Rotselleri- och palsternackssoppa med mandel och persilja

4 portioner

Ingredienser

500 gram rotselleri

200 gram palsternacka 

1 gul lök

2 vitlöksklyftor

1,2 liter lantbuljong

2 msk mandelsmör

1 näve färsk persilja

2 tsk äppelcidervinäger

Olja

Salt och nymalen svartpeppar

Toppingsallad

1 1/2 dl vildris, eller annat sädesslag så som quinoa / hirs / durra / dinkel / matvete (använd gärna överblivet sädesslag här, om du har något. Det går också bra att byta ut mot kokta baljväxter, så som linser eller kikärtor som kan köpas förkokta på tetra)

200 gram rotselleri, eller palsternacka

1 näve färsk persilja

1 liten näve mandelflan

krasse

olivolja till rostning

kallpressad olivolja att ringla över - gärna en smaksatt

Gör såhär

Börja med att koka vildriset till toppingsalladen, enligt anvisning på förpackningen.

Skala och finhacka lök och vitlök, fräs i lite olja i en gryta eller kastrull tills de mjuknar men utan att de tar färg. Skrubba rotsakerna noga, skär bort eventuella jordiga bitar och dela resten i mindre bitar. Tillsätt rotsakerna, mandelsmör och vätska till grytan. Låt koka upp och sjud i 15-20 minuter, beroende på storleken på bitarna, tills allt är helt mjukt. Ta bort från värmen, mixa tills helt slätt med hjälp av stavmixer. Tillsätt persilja och vinäger och pulsa några gånger. Smaka av med salt och peppar.

Värm ugnen till 200°C. Skrubba rotsellerin till toppingsalladen noga. Skär i små tärningar, blanda med lite olja och en nypa salt. Rosta i ugnen tills mjuka, ca 15 minuter. Låt mandelflanen rosta med sista minuten. Blanda vildris, rostad rotselleri och mandelflarn. Finhacka persiljan och blanda ner. Smaka av med salt och peppar.

Servera soppan toppad med salladen och krasse. Ringla över kallpressad olivolja - gärna en smaksatt!

Plant bouillabaisse with kale and rapeseed aioli

My take on a French classic! A flavourful broth with saffron, a bunch of seasonal veggies and a creamy rapeseed aioli - that’s how I serve this favourite soup of mine!

- scrolla ner för recept på svenska -

Plant bouillabaisse with kale and rapeseed aioli

Serves 4

Inspired by a classic bouillabaisse this my take on a soup-meets-stew which you can serve both as a middle-of-the-week dinner and during festive holidays. Drizzle the soup with a lovely coloured rapeseed aioli and the soup is ready to serve!

Ingredients

10 cm leeks

2 garlic cloves

1 tsp fennel seeds

1/2 tsp cumin seeds

1/2 grams saffron, ground

4 carrots

1/2 celeriac

2 Tbsp tomato puree

14 dl vegetable stock

150 grams fresh kale

2 packages (á 230 grams rinsed weight) pre cooked small white beans or chickpeas

1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

1 handful of fresh parsley

flakey salt and freshly ground black pepper

Rapeseed aioli

1 Tbsp dijon mustard

1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

1 dl organic unsweetened soy mylk (or 1 dl of the aquafaba from a package of precooked chickpeas)

1 pinch of flakey salt

2 - 2 1/2 dl cold pressed rapeseed oil

1 small garlic clove

For serving

chiliflakes

fresh parsley, chopped

How to

Cut the leek in half, finely chop and then rinse carefully. Peel and finely chop the garlic. Fry leek, garlic, fennel seeds, cumin seeds and saffron in a pot in a drizzle of oil until soft.

Scrub the carrots and cut in smaller pieces. Scrub the celeriac (first cut away the root part, if there is any left, as it’s often quite dirty), cut in smaller pieces. Add carrots and celeriac to the pot together with the tomato puree. Add the vegetable stock and bring to a boil. Simmer for about 15 minutes, until the root veggies have soften but still got that bite to them. Drain and rinse the white beans. Add to the stew. Chop the parsley. Add to the stew together with the vinegar. Salt and pepper to taste. Chop the kale and add to the stew. Remove from heat.

Rapeseed aioli: Mix together dijon mustard, vinegar, soy milk and salt using an hand mixer or blender. Then VERY slowly drizzle in the oil while still mixing. Suddenly the mixture will thicken, and then you’ve got a mayonnaise! Peel and finely grate the garlic, add the the mayonnaise and mix one agan. Salt to taste.

Serve your soup drizzled with the rapeseed aioli, chili flakes and fresh parsley!

2 vitlöksklyftor

1 tsk fänkålsfrön

1/2 tsk kumminfrön

1/2 gram saffran

4 morötter

1/2 medelstor rotselleri

2 msk tomatpuré

1,4 liter grönsaksbuljong

1 nypa flingsalt

2 - 2 1/2 dl kallpressad rapsolja

1 liten vitlöksklyfta

Till servering

Chiliflakes

Färsk persilja, finhackad

Gör såhär

Dela purjolöken på mitten, strimla och skölj av noga. Skala och finhacka vitlöken. Fräs purjolök och vitlök i olja i en gryta tillsammans med fänkålsfrön, kumminfrön och saffran tills löken mjuknar. Skrubba och skär morötterna i slantar, skär bort skalet från rotsellerin och skär resten i små tärningar. Tillsätt till grytan tillsammans med tomatpurén. Slå på grönsaksbuljong och koka upp, låt sjuda i ca 15 minuter, tills rotsakerna mjuknat men fortfarande har en inre kärna.

Cauliflower and chanterelle soup with crispy beans and apple topping

A White soup with a golden touch - cauliflower and chanterelles makes a perfect match in this creamy soup where you get a delicious sweetness from apples!

Cauliflower and chanterelle soup with crispy beans and apple topping

4 portions

Ingredients

1 cauliflower

2 shallots

1 garlic clove

2 red apples

150 gram chanterelles (or the corresponding amount dried mushroom. 80 gram dried per 500 gram fresh is a good “rule” to have in mind)

10 dl / 4 cups water

2 dl / 0.8 cups oat mylk

1/2 dl / 0.2 cups parsley, finely chopped

1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar

2 Tbsp cold pressed olive oil

sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Topping

1 red apple

230 gram pre cooked cannellini beans

1 Tbsp cold pressed olive oil

1/2 dl / 0.2 cups parsley, finely chopped

edible flowers (optional)

How to

Remove the leafs from the cauliflower, trim off the woody ends of the stem. Rinse, dry and give a toss together with some oil and a pinch of salt. Set aside. Tear the cauliflower in smaller pieces.

Cut the apple in smaller pieces (seeds removed). Brush the chanterelles, then parboil them for 3 to 5 minutes in a saucepan. Add some oil, shallot and garlic and fry for another minute until the onion is soft. Add the cauliflower, apple, water and oat mylk and bring to a boil, simmer for about 10 minutes, until all is soft. Remove from heat, add vinegar and parsley and mix until smooth using an immersion blender. Salt and pepper to taste.

Pre heat the oven to 175 degrees Celsius / 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Put the cauliflower leaves on a baking tray, without the leaves touching each other, and roast in the oven until crispy - takes about 10 minutes.

Rinse and drain the cannellini beans, dry with a piece of kitchen paper (starting off with dry beans will make it easier to get really crisp beans when roasting them). Mix with some oil and a pinch of salt. Cut the apple in small pieces. Stir fry the beans in a pan until golden and slightly crisp. Add the apples and fry for another minute. Add the parsley. Salt and pepper to taste.

Serve the soup topped with the bean fry, crispy leaves and maybe som edible flowers!

Carrot- and tomato soup with red lentils and quinoa

Mix, simmer, top, serve. The easiest way to cook a hearty and warming soup for any occation! 

With a high speed blender at home you can not only make creamy nut butters, smooth smoothies, sauces, dressings, ice creams, hummus in minimum amount of time - you can also make a delicious soup in almost no time at all. Mix your raw veggies until completely smooth, then just transfer to a saucepan and let the whole thing simmer for a couple of minutes. READY! Add some kind of topping (can be shaved veggies, beans, nuts or seeds or quinoa as I have here) for a even more hearty soup. I also added some red lentils, if you want to do the same and are using soaked + sprouted ones you can just add them without any extra simmering, but it you're using raw ones you would want to simmer for about 10 minutes, on low heat. 

In this recipe I use carrots and tomatoes as the base for the soup - but you could also add fennel, parsnip, pumpkin or whatever you find in you fridge. You could also make a green soup with broccoli, peas, spinach etc. Feel free to vary the soup depending on what you're craving at the moment! Also, this is a clever recipe if you want to make a smaller amount of soup, to serve one or two. Just use half of everything! 

 

Carrot- and tomato soup with red lentils and quinoa

Serves 4

 

Ingredients

600 g carrots

400 g tomatoes (or same amount crushed tomatoes, without citric acid)

1 small red onion

1 garlic clove

4 dried organic apricots

1 liter water

1 tbsp unfiltered apple cider vinegar 

2 dl / 0.8 US cups red lentils (optional, preferably soaked + sprouted)

1 handful fresh herbs of your choice 

unrefined sea salt or mountain salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

 

Topping

2 dl / 0.8 US cups cooked red quinoa (optional)

250 g cocktail or plum tomatoes in different colors

1/2 dl / 0.2 US cups hemp seeds 

1 handful of fresh parsley, chopped

 

How to

Wash and slice the carrots in to smaller pieces. Cube the tomatoes. Peel the onion and cut in to smaller pieces. Put in a high speed blender with apricots and water, blend until completely smooth. I use one of the three timed blend cycle buttons (35 seconds, 60 seconds and 90 seconds - I use the 90 seconds one for soups like this) on my Omniblend high speed blender to make sure the soup gets really creamy. Add some water if the soup is too thick (especially if you want to add red lentils in the next step, as the lentils will absorb some of the water). 

Transfer to saucepan and bring to a simmer. Add 2 dl red lentils (soaked over night + sprouted for 24 hours) and let simmer for about 2 minutes*.

Wash and cut the tomatoes in half. Toss together with the parsley and quinoa.

Pour the soup in to 4 bowls, top with the quoinoamix and hemp seeds.

* If you're using raw red lentils let simmer for about 10 minutes, until soft but still "al dente".
