List of Ingredients




1 pound good quality beef, such as cubes of sirloin

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 yellow onion, diced small

1 tablespoon fresh garlic, minced

2 teaspoons fresh dill, chopped

2 medium-sized potatoes, diced ½-inch

1 pint heavy whipping cream

1 pint half & half

2 cups water

1 tablespoon onion powder

1 teaspoon finely ground white pepper

2 tablespoons good quality beef base (concentrated beef stock, not granular)

¼ cup cornstarch plus ¼ cup cold water

¼ cup green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)

Recipe



• Heat a large, heavy soup pot and add both oils. Add the meat, onion, garlic, dill and potatoes. Saute for 15 minutes until meat is browned.

• Stir in the onion powder, white pepper and beef base. Allow mixture to cook another 5 minutes.

• Stir in the cream, half & half and water. Simmer gently for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until meat is tender.

• In a container with a tight-fitting lid, add the cornstarch to ¼ cup cold water and shake vigorously to blend. Slowly add this mixture to the simmered soup while stirring.

• Allow soup to simmer gently for an additional 5 minutes.

• Garnish servings with a sprinkling of sliced green onions.

Serves 6.
