“Zuppa Turca con pomodoro e Salsiccia“
You may not believe it but I actually made this soup on a very hot day in June.
But that’s me, I don’t mind at all, I actually need a good hot soup even on summer, I’m so much into hot soups, they make me feel better 🙂 For instance I love my Chickpeas & Carrots soup with chilli croutons and I highly reccomend it to you!
This is my own version of a typical Turkey Soup. It is not the original recipe, it is my adaptation, hope you enjoy it.
It is very hearty, flavoured and definitely to be considered a main dish since it calls for sausages as well.
He comes the recipe…
