Course Soup
Cuisine American
Servings 4 people

Equipment

  • Large pot
  • Wooden spoon
  • Knife
  • Cutting board

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 large celery root, peeled and cubed
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
  • Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot. Stir and cook for 3 minutes until the onion softens.
  • Add the cubed potatoes and celery root to the pot along with the beef broth, thyme leaves, salt, and black pepper.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 25 minutes until the potatoes and celery root are tender.
  • Taste and adjust salt or pepper if needed before serving.

Notes

If the stew thickens too much while simmering, add a splash of extra broth to reach your preferred consistency. Celery root can be peeled ahead and stored in cold water to prevent browning. Leftovers reheat well on the stovetop with a little added broth to loosen the texture.
