Finding Nemo Soup

0

  • Makes4 servings

Floating mats of algae, strands of green seaweed, and lots of shells and stuff on the bottom. It's the ocean in a bowl!

Ingredients

  • 8 cups chicken broth, (homemade or canned)

  • 1 large carrot

  • 1 stalk celery, very thinly sliced

  • 3/4 cup baby shell pasta, (the smallest)

  • 1 egg

  • 1 tbsp grated Parmesan

  • 250 g fresh spinach, trimmed and cut into strips

  • salt, to taste

  • black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Pour chicken broth into a large saucepan or Dutch oven.

  • Scrub the carrot and slice crosswise into very thin rounds. Add carrot and celery slices to the chicken broth. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, and let simmer about 5 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.

  • Meanwhile, cook the shell pasta in boiling water until tender but not mushy. Drain and add to the simmering soup.

  • In a small bowl, beat together the egg and Parmesan cheese. Pour the egg mixture into the simmering soup, while stirring constantly - it will form long stringy strands and cook almost instantly. Add the spinach and cook for just a minute or two, until wilted. Season to taste with salt and pepper, if necessary.
