I'm having a few guests over for lunch, and I thought I'd serve a
potato soup. I 'm looking for a thick, almost stew like soup that
doesn't use any meat, and that is heavy on onions.
My mother made a potato soup using lard, but I d rather not use meat
products.
Any other suggestions would be much appreciated.
Potato Soup (Kartoffelsuppe)
2 medium sized onions, diced
1 bunch soup vegetables (carrot, leeks, & parsley)
15g margarine
250g potatoes, peeled and diced
500ml stock
salt
pepper
basil
1 bread roll
15g butter
chives
Saute onions and soup vegetables in margarine.
Boil potatoes and sauteed vegetables in stock until tender. Pass the
soup
through a seive. Reheat and season with salt and pepper and basil.
Cut bread roll into cubes and fry in the butter until browned.
Serve the soup sprinkled with croutons and 2 Tbs finely chopped chives.
