Beef soup with dumplings makes a delicious lunch on a cold winter’s day, wonderful for when you have just got in from the wind and rain. This rustic soup is full of tasty warm comforting flavours onions, leeks and lots of root vegetables. Potatoes, carrots, Swede and other root vegetables soak up the rich flavour of the beef; the potatoes become tender, soft, stodgy and very satisfying. Heavy filling root vegetables taste wonderful with beef; this recipe combines the rich meaty flavours of beef with the comforting filling textures and flavours of winter vegetables.
The great thing about this recipe is that it is very versatile, you can use any root vegetable, they all taste fabulous with beef. You can even use Sunday lunch’s leftover vegetables; just put them in half way through cooking instead, as they will need less time.
Dumplings are ideal for winter, like beef soup they are also comforting, dumplings are also wonderful to soak up all the soup and mop up every last drop of this scrumptious lunch. This soup can be made ahead of time so it is ready for you to heat up and eat straight away; there is absolutely no need for you to wait to be warmed up.
