3 sprigs parsley, chopped
1 large onion, diced
1 lb potatoes, peel, wash & slice

Recipe
Heat the butter or lard in a 4 qt. soup pot. Place
the vegetables, parsley and onion in the pot and fry

return to the pot for thickening the soup.
Reheat the soup. Test for seasoning, add just a
hint of vinegar, garnish with the 2 tb. chopped
parsley and serve.
