Nutrition
Remember when mashing the vegetables, to do it with very little broth. This way you will be able to choose its texture if you prefer it to be more brothy or thicker.
If you do it the other way around and we overdo it with broth, we will not be able to rectify it to make it thicker again.
You can accompany your vegetables puree with croutons of fried or toasted bread, with a few slices of crispy ham or with a mixture of crushed nuts to give it a crunchier touch.
