Cooking Steps

Prepare
1
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C and prepare the stock.
  • Finely chop the onion.
  • Thoroughly wash or peel the potatoes, then finely dice them. 
  • Use a peeler or cheese slicer to shave three courgette ribbons per person, then dice the rest of the courgette.
Toast the pumpkin seeds
2
  • Heat a clean frying pan over high heat and toast the pumpkin seeds until they start to pop, then remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a soup pot over low heat and fry the onion for 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the diced courgette, then turn the heat to medium-low and fry for 3 minutes.
Make the soup
3
  • Add the potatoes and the stock, then cover with the lid and boil for 10 minutes over low heat.
  • In the meantime, heat a drizzle of olive oil in the same pan you used for the pumpkin seeds.
  • Fry the courgette ribbons for 5 minutes over medium-low heat, turning halfway.
Bake the bread
4
  • Cut open the bread roll and transfer to a parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Top with half each of the mushroom pesto and the grated cheese.
  • Bake in the oven for 8 minutes.
Finish
5
  • Take the soup off the heat and use an immersion blender to process until smooth.
  • Add a splash of hot water as necessary if it's too thick.
  • Stir the rest of the pesto and cheese into the soup, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve
6
  • Serve the soup in bowls and top with the courgette ribbons.
  • Garnish with the pumpkin seeds, then drizzle over the truffle-style oil as preferred.
  • Serve the bread alongside.
