Ingredients

4 onions finely diced
3 cloves garlic
2 leeks
2 carrots
3 slices celery root/ celeriac about finger thick
2 cans white beans
2 cans diced tomatoes
8 cups 2 liters vegetable stock
200 g freekeh cracked
2 tablespoon tomato paste
2 teaspoon marjoram
2 teaspoon oregano
2 bunch parsley chopped
1 teaspoon celery salt
2 teaspoon onion powder
4 teaspoon paprika powder sweet
1 teaspoon smoked salt optional

Instructions

We start by grounding the Freekeh. To do this I use my high speed blender with the pulse function. Pour the cracked freekeh in vegetable broth. If you use TVP, then submerge this in enough vegetable broth to cover it. I let both soak overnight.
The next day you can finely dice the onions, mince the garlic, and saute in a sufficiently large pot. For this purpose, I always add a splash of water, so that nothing burns.
Now chop leeks, carrots, and celery root finely. I like to use my chopper. Add the vegetables to the onions and let them sautee briefly.
Now you can add all the other ingredients and let the soup simmer for about 20 min on medium heat.
When the freekeh is soft, the soup is ready and you can season the soup again just to your own taste.
Garnish the soup with some freshly chopped parsley
