Minestrone soup with pasta

First, prepare the vegetables. Peel the carrots and potatoes and dice them (1 cm × 1 cm) along with the celery stalks and tomatoes. Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic. Wash the zucchini and cut it into small cubes.

In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chopped celery stalks, carrots, onion, garlic, potatoes, and zucchini to the pot and sauté everything together, stirring occasionally, for 6–7 minutes over medium heat.

After sautéing the vegetables, add the diced tomatoes, tomato paste, pasta, 1 liter of vegetable broth, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to the pot and cook everything together over medium heat for 13–14 minutes from the boiling point. Once the vegetables are soft, turn off the heat and remove the pot.
