Katja’s Potato Soup

by Rachael, who will have made this again within a week
Berlin, Germany

Tomorrow our hosts will cook for us, and we’ll like it so much we’ll record the recipe with a view to making it again and again and again…..even though it seems most Germans buy their potatoes in boxes – one box for mashed potato, another box for fried potatoes, yet another for potato dumplings (OK, so we very nearly bought those ones! They did look good!!)

5kg potatoes
7 carrots
4 onions
yellow pepper
   Chop all and boil until cooked. Whizz.

1 1/2 pottles sour cream (that must be about 300g all up)
Add all the following in quantities that suit your taste:
dollop of mustard
vegetable stock
beef stock
marjoram
parsley
lemon juice
peas
chopped up sausage (Wiener is Katja’s favourite)
   Heat and serve

Thanks girls for letting us stay with you – I bet you had no idea you’d end up cooking a meal for fourteen the day you agreed to let us park outside your apartment! Thanks for letting us stay…and stay….and stay…when the process dragged on and on and on. We really appreciate you giving Grandpa and Co a bed while the rest of us carried our toothbrushes down the street to the Womo each evening. Your beautiful creative apartment was a great place to transition to living out of our more cramped quarters, The Bear Cave. And thanks for the real coffee 😉

(today Rob spent half the day picking up Womo Number Two, I spent half the day fighting with the internet trying to find places to dump our waste water when we actually hit the road……not much to write home about really)
