To make this soup, you will typically start by sautéing some onions and garlic in a pot with a little bit of olive oil. Then you will add in your chopped vegetables, along with some vegetable or chicken broth, and let the soup simmer until the vegetables are tender.

Depending on the recipe, you may also add in some other ingredients such as diced tomatoes, beans, or pasta. Some versions of the soup also call for the addition of chourico or other types of sausage for extra flavor.

Once the soup is fully cooked, it is typically served hot with a crusty bread on the side. It can be a hearty and satisfying meal on its own or served as a side dish to accompany a main course.

Portuguese vegetable soup is a great way to enjoy a variety of nutritious vegetables in one dish, and it is a popular comfort food in Portugal and beyond.
