How to Chop Herbs

Method

  • In a large pot, heat oil over medium low heat. Add leek and sauté until soft, about 4-5 minutes. Add garlic, carrots and sauté for about 2-3 minutes.

  • Add corned silverside, parsley and 6 cups water. Cover and bring to a boil. Simmer covered on low heat for 3 hours, until the meat becomes tender.

  • Remove the corned beef, set it on a cutting board and shred with a fork. Return it to the pot then add cabbage and potatoes. Season with salt and pepper as required. Cook until the potatoes and cabbage are tender, about 45 more minutes.

  • Serve the soup hot garnished with parsley.

  • Tip: Get 2 meals out of 1 piece of beef corned silverside. Cook entire piece as per instructions above, use 600g for this Soup recipe and reserve 1 cup of cooked meat to make Corned Beef Pockets. Recipe available online at countdown.co.nz
