Vegetable soup with smoked sausage



Cooking time: approx. 120 min.
Ingredients (for 4 pax):
4 smoked sausages
600g waxy potatoes
280g carrots
230g green beans
160g parsley root
180g leek
140g celery
1 bunch parsley
5 teaspoons Vegeta
2 pinches sea salt
2 pinches ground pepper
3 teaspoons colza oil






Step 1


Cut all ingredients in approx. 1cm large pieces.

Step 2

Gently roast the smoked sausage until it turns slightly brown. Then add all other vegetables into a large pot and add water.

Step 3

Flavor with Vegeta, sea salt and ground pepper.

Step 4

Reduce the soup two to three times and refill water to intensify the taste as you wish and wait until the vegetables are al dente.

Best serve with wholemeal bread

Recommended alcoholic beverage: beer

Ok we posted this recipe because we had the first cold days in Frankfurt and we were practicaly graving for an old school, grandma style soup. This is what came out of our idea in just trying to remember the soups we loved as children. It's got a great intense taste due to the reduction which should take place a few times and the smoked sausage. A good idea would also be to add bacon or some other vegetables. Hope you enjoy trying this at home on a cool evening.

I tried cooking this last weekend. Really easy and just tastes great.
However, I added a bit of bacon which intensified the taste. Keep going guys.
I'll have a look at this more often.
