Cheese soup with sausage
Another simple cheese soup recipe. This time with sausage and noodles. The soup is satisfying, despite the fact that it was prepared in water. I took the cheese from the tub. It is soft and melts well.
Cut the onion into small cubes. Grate the carrots on a coarse grater. Cut the sausage into strips.
Pour a small amount of vegetable oil into the frying pan. Add carrots and onions. Fry over medium heat. No need to brown. When the onion begins to become translucent, add the sausage. Fry everything together a little more. Add a little water and simmer until the vegetables are ready.
While the vegetables and sausage cook, dice the potatoes and add them to boiling salted water.
When the potatoes are almost ready, add vermicelli. Leave to simmer for another 5 minutes.
When the potatoes are tender and the vermicelli is almost cooked, add the fried vegetables and sausage, followed by the cheese. Stir until the cheese melts, keeping the soup at a gentle simmer. Adjust the salt and pepper and add the herbs.
I served the soup with garlic croutons made from Borodino bread. It was delicious!
