Best Stoemp Belgium Recipes
STOEMP (BELGIUM)
I used this recipe for week 26 of my food blog, "Travel by Stove." I am attempting to cook on meal from every nation on Earth, and Belgium is my 26th stop. I never use any recipe for my blog that I'm not reasonably sure is from authentic or traditional sources, and this recipe has been posted without any alternations or additions to the ingredients. Stoemp is a traditional Belgian potato dish that can be made with many different vegetables, including cabbage, carrots and onions. This version uses leeks.

Steps:
- Boil the potatoes with the salt. Drain and run through a ricer or mash.
- Meanwhile, rinse the leeks thoroughly and slice them into rings.
- Melt the butter in a large pan and add the leek slices. Cook for five minutes or until soft, continuing to stir (you don't want them to brown).
- Add the chicken stock, cream, nutmeg and salt and pepper to taste.
- Bring just to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Strain off the liquid, reserving it, and add the leeks to the potatoes.
- Return the sauce to the pan and bring it back to a boil. Continue to boil, stirring continuously, until the sauce is reduced by half. Then add it to the mashed potatoes (you can also add some extra butter and cream if the mixture is too dry).
- At this point you can either serve, or you can turn the stoemp into a baking dish and bake at 300 degrees for 2 hours (this will give it a crispy top).

BELGIAN STOEMP AUX CAROTTES (CARROT MASHED POTATOES)
This is a popular side dish in Belgium. It usually goes with blood sausage (boudin) or strips of bacon, but I often serve it with sautéed chicken. Go easy on the cream, you want it to have more substance than smooth mashed potatoes.

Steps:
- Heat a small skillet over high heat.
- Add the bacon and sauté for 5 minutes until the bacon bits are well colored.
- Remove from heat and set aside.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Add potatoes and carrots.
- Cook for 20 to 25 minutes until the potatoes and carrots are well done or even slightly overdone (they will be easier to mash).
- Drain the vegetables and place them in a salad bowl.
- Mash the vegetables with a fork, a potato masher or any other manual ustensil. It is important not to use an electric mixer so that the texture remains chunky enough.
- Add the bacon bits and let the diced pieces of butter melt on top of the mashed vegetables.
- Add cream and nutmeg.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Toss well and serve.
