      Title: Farmhouse Vegetable Soup(English)
 Categories: Soup/stews, English
      Yield: 4 servings

      2 lb Potatoes
      1 lb Carrots
      1 lb Onions
      1    Leek
      2    Celery ribs
      2 oz Butter
      1 pt Lamb stock
           Bouquet garni
           Salt and pepper

  Peel and coarsely chop the carrots, onions, leek and celery. Melt
  the butter in a large saucepan and add the chopped vegetables.
  Saute for 10 minutes, stirring  occasionally, until the vegetables
  are soft. Peel the potatoes and cut into small chunks. Put the
  potatoes, bouquet garni, stock, and salt, and pepper into the
  saucepan with enough water to cover the vegetables. Bring to the
  boil and simmer for 45 minutes. Remove the bouquet garni and serve.
  The potatoes thicken the soup and may disappear into the liquid.
  The vegetables may be diced or finely chopped, using a food
  processor, if preferred.
