Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams burdock root
- 1 medium carrot
- 1 small onion
- 1 medium celery stalk
- 2 cloves garlic
- 4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Instructions
Begin by preparing your vegetables. Peel the burdock root and slice it thinly into 2-3 inch pieces. Peel and dice the carrot and onion. Chop the celery stalk. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a large pot, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil over medium heat. Once heated, add the diced onion, minced garlic, and chopped celery. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Add the sliced burdock root and diced carrot to the pot. Stir and cook for another 3 minutes to lightly sauté the vegetables.
Pour in the low-sodium vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
Stir in the soy sauce, ground cumin, and ground black pepper.
Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover the pot, and let it cook for about 20 minutes, or until the burdock root and carrots are tender.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Before serving, finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle it over each bowl of soup for a burst of fresh flavor and color.
Serve hot and enjoy your nourishing low fat burdock soup.
