Directions
Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large heavy bottom pot over medium heat and add in the onion, celery and carrots along with a pinch of salt and pepper
Cook until the vegetables are softened and fragrant (about 7-8 minutes!)
Add in the garlic, ginger, potatoes and any broccoli stems you have
Give it a good stir and continue to cook for another 5 minutes or so
Add in the vegetables stock just so it covers the vegetables
Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer (with the pot covered!) until all of the vegetables are very tender (about 15-20 minutes!)
Using a regular blender or an immersion blender, purée the soup until smooth, check for seasoning. Cover until ready to serve
Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat and cook the Zoglo’s Incredible™ Shawarma Style Strips for 4-5 minutes (toss occasionally!)
To serve, ladle the soup into bowls, top with Shawarma, green onion, a pinch of cayenne pepper and a squeeze from a lemon wedge
Enjoy 💚
