Super Beef and Vegetable Soup

Wholesome, traditional chunky beef and winter vegetable soup.

This is my go-to soup every winter full of flavour and goodness to warm you up on cold winter nights.

Just like something grandma would make.

This is an old family recipe that I still eat frequently. It's nothing fancy but hits the spot on a nice wintry day.

RECIPE

Makes Roughly 8 Serves

Preparation & Cooking Time: Roughly 8 hours & 10 Minutes

INGREDIENTS

600 Grams Chuck Steak or Gravy Beef

1 Large Swede

1 Large Turnip

1 Large Parsnip

3 Large Potatoes

2 Sticks of Celery

400 Grams Baby Corn

2 Bay Leaves

5 Litres and 2 Tablespoons Water

Gravy Mix

1 Tablespoon Gravy Mix

2 Tablespoons Water

DIRECTIONS

Cut the vegetables and beef up into big chunky bits. Add them, your stock, and water into a large pot. Bring the pot to the boil, then simmer on medium-low heat for 7 hours.

Meanwhile, prepare the gravy mix. Add some water to dissolve, then add to your soup. Mix thoroughly.

Add the gravy mix at the end of the 7 hours, and simmer for another hour, but you can basically simmer your soup as long as you want. Keep the he oil and fat in for this soup as it gives it more flavour.
