Ingredients

Imperial | Metric | USA

Converted from metric

  • 4 small carrots (peeled and diced. Approx 17cm (5.5") long)
  • 3.2oz leeks (cleaned and chopped)
  • 3.9oz white cabbages (sliced in half and then finely shredded)
  • 2 medium onions (peeled and finely diced)
  • 3 small tomatoes (roughly diced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (peeled and minced)
  • 1 small fennel bulb (trimmed and sliced)
  • 0.5oz marigold (Swiss Vegetable Bouillon Powder. Mixed with 300mls water)
  • 1 teaspoon mixed dried herbs
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • salt (to taste)
  • pepper (to taste)

Directions

Step 1

Place all the vegetables into a large pan with 2 to 3 tablespoons water, and place over a low heat with the lid on the pan; simmer for about 10 minutes, and then add the vegetable stock with the tomato paste, bring to the boil and gently boil for 20 minutes until the vegetables are nearly soft.

Step 2

Season to taste with salt and pepper, and then add the herbs, replace the lid and simmer for a further 15 to 20 minutes until the vegetables are soft and the broth has reduced slightly, so you are left with a chunky stew.

Step 3

Serve straight away with bread, croutons or crackers, or, allow to cool slightly and liquidise - this will then be a potage rather than a broth.

Pour the potage back into the pan and gently reheat without boiling.

If you have tried this autumn broth recipe, what did you think of it?

e.g. Were the instructions easy to follow, did it taste okay, any disasters?

Would you tweak this autumn broth recipe? If so, how?

e.g. Add half a chopped onion, use less butter, shake not stir...
