Number Of Ingredients 13

3 large potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
2 Tbsp freshly chopped parsley
1 medium onion, finely diced
2 or 3 carrots sliced
1/2 parsnip (left whole if you do not like it or sliced if you do)
1/4 cauliflower, cut into small floretes
1/4 capsicum (bell pepper... piece left whole)
1 Tbsp oil
salt to taste
1 Tbsp paprika
4 eggs
sour cream
you can add other veggies too if you want like sweet potato or swede or turnip or broccoli but always use the above veggies as a base soup

Steps:

  • 1. Lightly fry the onion and parsley in the oil in a big pot. When onion is see through add the diced veggies and stir.
  • 2. When the onion starts to have a bit of colour add the paprika and toast it for a sec or two till it is fragrant. Add salt.
  • 3. Add enough water to it to just cover the veggies. Bring to the boil and then simmer slowly till veggies are cooked.
  • 4. When veggies are cooked crack all 4 eggs in to the soup, whole, one at a time. (like you would poach the egg) and gently simmer with lid on without stirring for a few mins for the egg to cook.
  • 5. Serve with crusty bread and a dollop of sour cream if you want! It is nice to actually over cook the potato just slightly as it gives the soup a sandy potato bottom... yum!!
