My mom, the Galicianer, makes a mean potato soup that every eastern European native (or wannabe) will love. Easy, hearty, nourishes the soul. Ingredients:
4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed |
salt |
2 carrots, chopped |
1 small parsnip, peeled and chopped (optional) |
1/2 lb mushroom, chopped (optional) |
fresh parsley, to taste |
fresh dill, to taste |
1 garlic clove, minced (to taste) |
1 large onion, diced |
1 tablespoon flour |
Directions:
1. Put potatoes in a soup pot and add water to cover, plus another few inches. Salt and bring to a boil. 2. Once boiling, add the carrots, optional parsnips and s, parsley, dill, garlic. 3. Bring to a boil, then simmer for about 1 hour. 4. While soup is boiling, saute the onion in oil in a skillet. When the onions are golden, add flour to make a roux. Thin with a little bit of water. Bring to a boil to thicken and then add to the soup. 5. Simmer a few more minutes and season to taste. |
