Minestrone soup with pasta

First, prepare the vegetables. Peel the carrots and potatoes, then cut them into approximately 1 cm cubes along with the celery stalks and tomatoes. Clean and finely chop the onion and garlic. Wash the zucchini and also cut it into small cubes.

In a large pot, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the chopped celery stalks, carrots, onion, garlic, potatoes, and zucchini. Sauté the vegetables, stirring occasionally, over medium heat for 6-7 minutes.

After sautéing, add the diced tomatoes, tomato paste, pasta, 1 liter of vegetable broth, dried basil, oregano, salt, and pepper to the pot. Cook over medium heat for 13-14 minutes from the boil. Once the vegetables are tender, remove from heat.
