Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Brown the meat
In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the meat and cook until browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.
Step 2: Sauté the vegetables
In the same pot, add the onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 4–5 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened.
Step 3: Simmer the soup
Return the browned meat to the pot. Pour in the broth, add potatoes, and season with salt and pepper. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and let simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until the meat is tender and the flavors meld beautifully.
Step 4: Add noodles or dumplings
During the last 10 minutes of cooking, stir in the egg noodles or dumplings. Let them cook until soft and comforting.
Step 5: Serve warm
Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley, and serve it alongside crusty bread or homemade biscuits.
