Easy and Beautiful Vegetable Soup With Cheese Dumplings

Step by step method

• 

  Step 1

  Prepare dough for dumplings. Grate the cheese on a medium grater, then mix with softened butter and egg.

• 

  Step 2

  Add salt to the mixture (if you want, and ground pepper too) along with dill and flour. After thorough mixing, leave the finished dough for dumplings alone.

• 

  Step 3

  Finely chop the peeled garlic and onion. Remove the skin from the potatoes, cut them and immediately soak them in cold water. Peel and chop the carrots on a coarse grater or cut into strips. Cut the pepper, peeled from seeds and partitions, into wide (1.5 cm) strips.

• 

  Step 4

  Pour a little oil into the pan, fry the carrots and onions for about a minute.

• 

  Step 5

  Then add garlic and pepper, fry everything together for another two minutes.

• 

  Step 6

  In parallel, boil the broth (water) in a saucepan, throw bay leaves into it along with potatoes.

• 

  Step 7

  Roll the cheese dough into small balls (smaller than a walnut), bearing in mind that they will definitely increase during cooking.

• 

  Step 8

  As soon as the broth with potatoes boils, dip the cheese dumplings into it along with the fried vegetables and spices.

• 

  Step 9

  Boil the vegetable soup with cheese dumplings until the potatoes are tender, stirring gently from time to time.

• 

  Step 10

  Serve such a first course hot at the table and try to eat it in “one sitting”, since tender dumplings lose their original taste when stored in broth.
