Potato Cabbage Soup With Ham image

I found this in a magazine and fell in love with it. It is a great thing to have for leftover ham, quick to fix, and very tasty.

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 -6 cups cabbage, shredded (about 1/2 med. head)
3 medium potatoes
2 medium carrots
6 -8 scallions (One bunch)
1/4 lb lean ham, chopped
4 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons flour
2 cups water
1 (13 3/4 ounce) can chicken broth
1 teaspoon dill
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Peel potatoes and cut them into 1/4" dice. Cut carrots into 1/4" dice. Coarsely chop scallions. Cut ham into 1/4" dice. Shred cabbage.
  • In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add potatoes, carrots and scallions and saute until scallions are wilted, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
  • Add cabbage, water, broth, dill and pepper, and bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and simmer 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Just before serving, gently mash vegetables with a potato masher to thicken liquid if desired. Stir in the ham. .
  • (Notes: I don't mash the potatos because I prefer potato soup that way, and it is already pretty thick for me. I also have used chicken bullion and water to make the broth called for, and it has worked fine for me.).
