Sunday Soup

I just noticed that I haven't posted a Sunday Soup for ages. Sorry about that. 

 

This week has been rather manic, but has also had some high points such as an impromptu dinner with a friend who was in town from Houston, and on a more bookish note, I finished The War the Ended Peace, which left me with a sense of achievement. It felt like a very long book and like hard work. 

 

Anyway, I made some soup earlier to celebrate Sunday. This is Take # 2 of my attempts at a simple potato soup (Take # 1 was ok, but needed more work).

 

 

I liked this. There's soup enough for lunch tomorrow, too. 

 

Ingredients:

 

 

4-5 Potatoes, peeled, diced

2 carrots, peeled, diced

1 red pepper

1 onion

2 sticks of celery

1 clove garlic

 

Vegetable stock, salt, pepper, a bit of red chilli (because I like a little spice), nutmeg, bay leave, caraway seeds.

 

For the topping: (veggie) sausages, sliced and fried with a few shallots.

 

Happy (Soup) Sunday!
