Bahan-bahan

6 porsi

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, (divided, plus more for drizzling)
1 medium yellow onion, (chopped)
2 cloves garlic, (cut into quarters)
4 medium zucchini, (halved lengthwise and thinly sliced)
4 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons fresh dill ((or 1 tablespoon dried), plus more for serving)
½ cup walnuts, (toasted)
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, (from 1 lemon)

Langkah-langkah

Preheat the oven to 350°F (165°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy clean-up.
Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium-low heat in a large pot. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes, or until the onions are soft and translucent. Do not brown.
Add the zucchini, chicken broth, salt and pepper, and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down to low, cover, and simmer for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the zucchini is tender.
Meanwhile, place the walnuts on the prepared baking sheet and toast in the oven until fragrant, 5 to 10 minutes. (Keep a close eye on them as nuts can burn quickly.)
Add the dill and walnuts to the soup. Using a stick blender, purée the soup until smooth. (Alternatively, purée the soup in batches in a blender. Be careful not to fill the jar more than halfway, and leave the hole in the lid open and loosely cover with a dish towel to allow the heat to escape.)
Add the lemon juice and the remaining tablespoon of oil to the soup, then taste and adjust seasoning if necessary (I usually add about ¼ teaspoon more salt). Ladle the soup into bowls, drizzle with more olive oil, sprinkle with dill, and serve.
