How To Make pork soup with escarole
-
1In a soup pot place the olive oil, carrots, celery, red onion, parsley, basil, garlic, salt, pepper and oregano. Let this gently simmer for a minute or two until it becomes fragrant. Add the chicken broth and the shredded pork; simmer on low heat while preparing the escarole. Prepare the macaroni as directed; drain and set aside. For the Escarole: Clean each leaf of the escarole and cut into pieces. In a large frying pan place the olive oil, garlic and seasonings. Add the escarole and turn the heat on to gently simmer the escarole. When the escarole is wilted down, add to the soup along with the chopped garlic and the broth that is formed. Place the macaroni at the bottom of a soup bowl. Add a little drizzle of olive oil and top with the soup and grated cheese.
