Swede Soup

Written by Lovelyn on November 26, 2008 – 3:51 pm -

So I tried this recipe the other day. The hardest part about it is cutting the swede. It was so hard a few times I almost chopped my fingers off. I need to get better knives. Anyway, here’s the recipe.

Ingredients

1 swede (rutabaga) peeled and chopped into small cubes
1 large onion chopped
3 cloves garlic minced
1 stick celery finely chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
5 1/2 cups vegetable stock
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon parsley
1/2 black pepper
1/2 teaspoon oregano
6 cardamon pods
salt to taste

Put olive oil in a large pot and saute onion, celery, and garlic over medium heat for a few minutes. Add swede and saute for a few more minutes. Add spices and soup stock. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer until the swede is soft.
