Brown Vegetarian Soup Recipe

Hope you like previously bosted recipes for vegetarian soups. This time we take a look at how to make a Brown Vegetarian Soup. Just like with the other recipes, lets first look at the ingredients we need to make a Brown Soup.

Ingredients for Brown Vegetarian Soup


We need the following ingredients to prepare the Brown Vegetarian Soup:

  • 6 cold boiled Potatoes,

  • 2 Onions stuck with Cloves,

  • 1 Tomato,

  • 2 and a half pints of Stock,

  • 2 ounces of Butter,

  • 1 strip of lemon rind,

  • 3 whole Allspice,

  • 1 dozen of Peppercorns,

  • 1 teaspoon of Worcester sauce,

  • Pepper and Salt for the taste,

  • 1 dozen of Forcemeat balls.


Now lets look at how to actually prepare this soup.

How to prepare Brown Vegetarian Soup


The first thing you should do is cut the potatoes and fry them very cautiously in the butter. The aim here is to make them soundly brown, and not to burn them, so be careful with that.

Put the fried potatos in a saucepan together with the Stock and simmer (to almost boil the liquid in saucepan over low heat) for 5 minutes. This will make the brown colour in the potatoes to boil off into the soup. When you are done with this, remove the potatoes from the soup.

Return the soup back to the saucepan and then add the following ingredients:

  • onions (stuck with three cloves),

  • lemon rind,

  • sauce,

  • spices,

  • pepper and salt and

  • tomato (slice it and fry it before you add it to the soup).


With that done, put in the forcemeat balls (fry the forcemeat balls before you add them). When you are done, serve this Brown Vegetarian Soup quickly. That is it!
