Instructions
  1. To reduce the cooking time of the soup, I cooked the chicken wings broth in advance. Filled the wings with water, brought to a boil and drained the first broth. I poured fresh water, and the second broth was no longer scum from the chicken meat. Put the onion in the husk, coarsely chopped carrots and parsley root. Cooked for about an hour. Start cooking the soup. Cooking all the vegetables. I’ll use turnips instead of potatoes. If you do not have turnips, put the potatoes. Finely chop the onion, as well as finely chop 2 cloves of garlic, and leave three whole. We will put it at the end of cooking the soup. Divide the carrots in half. One part is grated, the second part is cut into small cubes. This is optional. Carrots can be grated all over. Cut the bell pepper into thin strips. I will take a high saucepan for cooking, where I will first simmer the vegetables, and then cook the soup. Use any convenient dishes you want. Heat the oil and spread the onion, gild it. Add the carrots, reduce the heat and cover with a lid, simmer for 5 minutes. Spread the bell pepper and chopped garlic. Simmer for another couple of minutes under the lid.

We cut the tomato crosswise, put it on a skimmer and send it to boiling water for 1 minute, then easily remove the skin from it. Cut the tomato into a small cube. Put the tomato, garlic and Bay leaf in the soup. Cook for 3 minutes and remove the soup from the heat.
