Instructions

1. This is the special recipe of our grandpa Alois.
2. Our kids love this vegetable soup. The special mix of ingredients gives this vegetable soup a particularly delicious taste. So that it doesn`t get forgotten, that`s why here is the recipe - for Grandpa Alois and my children.
3. Clean the leek, peel the carrots and cut both into fine rings.
4. Peel the potatoes and kohlrabi and cut both into small cubes.
5. Chop the celery a little too.
6. Put all the vegetables in an appropriately sized saucepan and fill with water until the vegetables are almost covered. Now bring the whole thing to a boil, simmer for about 30 minutes on a low flame with the lid closed.
7. Occasionally mash the vegetables a little with a potato masher.
8. In the meantime, pluck the parsley from the stems.
9. Season to taste towards the end of the cooking time, add a little salt and 2 to 3 cubes of vegetable stock to taste. The homemade broth tastes better, of course, but you can of course also use grained, ready-made broth.
10. At the very end, add the parsley and bring to the boil again.
11. Grandpa always had Wiener sausages with it. The sausages were warmed in an extra pot and only cut into small pieces at the table and added to the soup.
12. By the way: Grandpa`s secret ingredient was an additional splash of Maggi - but that is of course a matter of taste.
13. In any case, it doesn`t work without it with our children - just like with grandpa.
