Pia, one of the most faithful followers of this website. has sent us a traditional recipe from northern Europe, from Sweden.

soup

When we can we will make it at home to see how it turns out, because it sounds delicious. The chilli should put some colour in our cheeks, which will be welcome in this cold weather..

Ingredients:

  • 1 leek cut into thin slices
  • 500 cl. vegetable broth
  • 5 crushed tomatoes.
  • 100 cl. tomato paste.
  • 600 cl. of milk
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 100 cl. of crème fraîche
  • chili at will

We crush the tomatoes, add the butter and put the remaining ingredients, apart from the crème fraîche, into the pot. Simmer for about 20 minutes, then add the crème fraîche when everything is ready.

And that's it.

It can be accompanied with toast, daily bread, strong cheeses and of course a good Can Pepitu Wine. 😉
