Garbure -- a french country soup

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
3 tablespoons Butter
2 Carrots, sliced
3 Leeks, cut in 1\" pieces (or 6 - 8 scallions, I prefer leeks)
2 cups Chopped cabbage
2 Stalks celery, sliced
1 teaspoon Salt
1½ teaspoon Sugar
4 cups Water
3 cups Vegetable broth (I use a vegetable bouillon powder)
1 cup COOKED dried navy beans, drained
2 mediums Potatoes, sliced
½ cup Frozen peas
Shredded Swiss cheese

Directions

(Best made dairy because the cheese is fabulous on top!) In saucepan, combine butter, carrots, leeks, cabbage, celery, salt, and sugar. Cover and cook over low flame for 30 minutes. Add water and vegetable broth. Bring to boil. Add beans, potatoes, and peas. Cover and simmer for 45 minutes. Remove vegetables and puree in blender. Mix with liquid and correct seasoning. Serve with shredded cheese. Freezes well.

Serves 8 - 10.
