Creamy potato and mushroom soup with crispy bacon

Ready in 25 minutes | Serves 2

Creamy potato and porcini mushroom soup with crispy pancetta is a perfect autumnal recipe: warm, creamy, and irresistible.

Ingredients

Preparation

Heat two drizzles of oil in a non-stick pan, add the diced pancetta, and cook until crispy, then set aside.

Cut the stale bread into 1 cm cubes and place them in a hot pan with a drizzle of oil, rosemary, and herbs. Toast the bread cubes for ten minutes over medium heat, tossing occasionally, until golden and crispy.

Then, cook the Arnaboldi instant potato and porcini mushroom cream soup . Lift part of the plastic wrap and pour hot water (about 60°C) into the pot, until it reaches the level of the inner line. Stir well to dissolve any lumps, close the plastic wrap, and wait two minutes.
If you have a microwave, you can also use cold water: pour water up to the level mark inside the pot, stirring well, making sure to break up any lumps. Cook at 750 watts for 1.5 minutes.

Serve the soup with the crispy pancetta and garnish with the flavored croutons. Alternatively, you can crumble the crispy pancetta and sprinkle it directly on top of the soup.

Enjoy your meal!
