French Chicken and Beef Soup image

I don't know if this is really French, but my cookbook calls it that. In any case, it's a really tasty soup to be enjoyed in the cold autumn evenings. Use beef ribs or other meaty part on the bone.

Time 3h30m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 whole chicken
1 1/2 kg beef ribs
2 1/2 liters water
2 beef bouillon cubes
2 bay leaves
2 teaspoons salt
10 white peppercorns
1 onion, roughly chopped
6 sprigs parsley
2 parsnips
50 g celery root
2 leeks, chopped to rings

Steps:

  • Cut most of the meat off the beef bones. Put the bones in a large (and I mean huge) pan, put the meat on top.
  • Boil the water, and pour it on the meat. Put in stock cubes, seasoning, onion and parsley. Bring to boil.
  • Simmer for two hours, remove the foam when needed.
  • Cut the chicken in 8-10 pieces, and put them into the pan. Let simmer for about an hour.
  • Cut the parsnips and the celery root to small pieces, and put them in the pan. Simmer for 10 minutes, then put in the leeks. Simmer another for 10 minutes.
  • Take beef and chicken bones out together with the meat. Cut the meat into small pieces and return to pan.
  • Serve with bread.
