Zucchini Soup with Fennel and Basil


This soup takes less than 10 minutes to prepare and about 15 minutes to cook so you can be eating a steaming bowl of this within 30 minutes of being home. It is really fast food that is really good.




















4 zucchini, sliced into rounds
1 fennel, quartered and finely sliced
vegetable stock
Large handful of fresh basil leaved, shredded

In a medium saucepan, heat 1 tbsp olive oil and sauté fennel til tender (about 5 mins). Add zucchini and a generous amount of salt and pepper and toss to combine. Pour over stock to almost cover zucchini. Bring to the boil. Cover and simmer until zucchini is tender. Add basil and blend until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve with toast with goats cheese and more fresh basil.
