Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large (diced) Onion
- 3 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 2 medium (chopped) Celery stalks
- 3 medium (sliced) Carrots
- 4 large (cubed) Potatoes (Yukon Gold or Russet)
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 6 cups Vegetable stock
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 2 whole Bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon (dried) Thyme
- 1 teaspoon (smoked or sweet) Paprika
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) Salt
- 1 teaspoon (freshly cracked) Black pepper
- 1 cup All-purpose flour (for dumplings)
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt (for dumplings)
- 1 teaspoon Caraway seeds
- 2 tablespoons (cold, cubed) Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup Milk
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic, celery, and carrots. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened.
Add the cubed potatoes to the pot. Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the vegetables and stir well to coat. Cook for 2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Pour in the vegetable stock and stir in the tomato paste until dissolved. Add the bay leaves, thyme, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the pot and allow the stew to cook for 25 minutes, stirring occasionally.
While the stew simmers, prepare the dumpling dough. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and caraway seeds.
Cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually pour in the milk while mixing gently. Stir just until the dough comes together; be careful not to overmix.
After 25 minutes of simmering, remove the bay leaves from the stew and adjust seasoning if needed.
Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling dough onto the surface of the simmering stew. Cover the pot and cook for 12-15 minutes, or until the dumplings are puffed up and cooked through.
Ladle the stew into serving bowls, ensuring each bowl gets a few dumplings. Serve warm and enjoy!
