Ingredients
- 4 tbsp (60 ml) vegetable oil, divided
- 5 lb ground beef (225 g)
- 75 cup chopped onion (180 ml)
- 75 cup shredded carrots (180 ml)
- 75 cup chopped celery (180 ml)
- 1 tsp (5 ml) dried basil
- 1 tsp (5 ml) dried parsley
- 4 cups cubed potatoes (600 g)
- 3 cups chicken broth (720 ml)
- 25 cup all-purpose flour (30 g)
- 5 cups milk (360 ml)
- 2 cups cubed beef sausage (225 g)
- 25 cup (60 ml) plain yogurt
- sliced green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large pot on medium heat; incorporate ground beef, onion, carrots, and celery. Stir and cook until the beef is browned and crumbly, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Mix in the basil and parsley. Add the potatoes and chicken broth, bringing the mixture to a boil; lower the heat and let it simmer until the potatoes are soft, around 10 to 12 minutes.
- In a separate small saucepan, warm the remaining 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until the mixture is smooth, roughly 1 minute. Slowly incorporate the milk, whisking continuously, and let it simmer until the sauce becomes thick and smooth.
- Combine the sauce with the soup, stirring all the while. Bring the mixture to a boil; lower the heat and add the beef sausage until it melts. Mix in the plain yogurt, stirring until it’s just warmed through.
- Serve piping hot, topped with sliced green onions. Enjoy!
Notes
- For a richer consistency, use full-fat milk or add heavy cream to the sauce.
- Experiment with various herbs and spices to customize the flavor.
- Swap ground beef and beef sausage with lentils or tofu for a vegetarian version.
