- Meanwhile, cut the ciabatta into 1cm cubes.
- Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
- Fry the ciabatta for 6 - 8 minutes so as to make croutons.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper, then set aside.
- Use an immersion blender to process the vegetables into a smooth soup.
- Add a splash of water as necessary if it seems too thick, then season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Keep the soup warm until serving, covered.
- Meanwhile, tear the sage leaves off of the stems.
- Melt the butter in a small frying pan over medium heat.
