Instructions
Vegetables soup:
- Prepare the fresh vegetables: Peel, chop the onion, and set it aside. Peel and chop the garlic and set it aside.Clean and chop the carrots, bell pepper, and leek. Set them all aside in a bowl.
- Sauté onions: Heat the oil and cook the onions until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the garlic and stir for another minute.
- Sauté vegetables: Add carrots, pepper, leeks, sweet paprika, smoked paprika, red chili flakes, thyme, salt, and pepper and stir. Stir well and cook for 10 minutes on medium-low heat.
- Pour in the vegetable stock and bring to a boil.
- During the time the soup needs to come to a boil, make the batter for the dumplings.
Dumpling batter:
- Combine eggs and sour cream/yogurt using a fork.
- Add salt and slowly start adding the flour while beating with the fork and incorporating the flour. The mixture should be smooth. Depending on the size of your eggs, you might need a little extra flour. Or a little less if your eggs are small. Check the pictures to see the batter consistency; it should be relatively thick and slowly fall off the fork.
Cook dumplings in the soup:
- Turn the heat down to low. Add the green beans to the soup.
- Add the dumplings to the simmering vegetable soup using a teaspoon, which should only be half full of batter. Let simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes.
- Add the broccoli florets and the peas to the soup and simmer for another 3-4 minutes until the dumplings are fluffy and fully cooked.
- Adjust the taste with white balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, and a pinch of sugar.
- Add the chopped herbs and serve immediately or reheat the soup.
Notes
- You can make the vegetable soup using other veggies, whatever you have and like. You can use only fresh vegetables, frozen ones, or a mixture. Most of the veggies I use are fresh, except for the green beans and peas (and sometimes the broccoli); they are frozen most of the time.
- I recommend using a kitchen scale when making the dumplings.
- The size of the eggs matters when you make dumplings. Use large ones if you live in the US and medium ones if you (like me) live in Germany.
- If you need the sugar depends on the acidity of the vinegar, some are sweeter than others.
- I had parsley, lovage, and thyme, but other fresh herbs like dill, chives, and oregano are also great. Or only use one kind; parsley is the most common choice.
