Sweet Pepper & Sausage Stew with Dilled Potato Dumplings ~ Sumptuous Spoonfuls #hearty #soup #recipe


I made this stew on a whim, the weekend when I was trying out my potato dumplings and making dinner for my friends and over-inundated with loads and loads of peppers from the last of the garden pickings. I thought that the dumplings should seriously be imparted into a stew, rather than made as a side dish, although I have to admit, when I made the dumplings for the cooking class on their own, they were marvelous as a side for the rouladen, with a bit of the gravy on top. Still the lovely dumplings are equally at home on top of a hearty stew like this one, which is full of colorful peppers, chicken sausage, white beans and basil.

I really hadn’t planned to blog this stew, but when I said this one wasn’t blog-worthy, my man totally corrected me and told that it was definitely worth posting. Everyone who tasted it complimented me on it … so yeah, why wouldn’t I post it? It was just me, being over-critical of myself and trying to filter out some of the content when no filtering was necessary.

So may I present to you a colorful, healthy, hearty stew, topped with comforting dilly potato dumplings? It is quite a nice autumn stew, especially if you happen to find yourself with a plethora of peppers that needs using.
