It only hit 28C today, and it didn’t even feel warm after the 40C+ days. I was so tired today after work that I even settled for what I thought was a soup (I do not have Italian heritage nor have I visited Italy, so I apologise ahead of time for any terms I use incorrectly).
Anyway, it was one pot, and that’s exactly what I wanted.
Turned out amazing. I had to tweak the recipe because I didn’t have a bunch of the ingredients, but I’d 100% make this again. Threw some pastrami in for protein and flavour.
Onions, potatoes, tomatoes, vegetable stock, pastrami, cannelini beans, kidney beans, pepper, and sugar to balance the acidity.
Eaten with Irish soda bread on the side. Saw life exit Irish partner when I dipped it in to olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
And then I tried the soup (?) with olive oil drizzled on top, and it was 🤌 The risoni thickened it up quite a bit, but I thoroughly enjoyed this meal. Felt pretty healthy, and I didn’t feel sluggish afterwards. No butter, just olive oil. My GP would be pleased.
Sorry for the super close up. I had to keep cropping the photo until it was small enough to upload.
