Odd Stew

Ingredients & Instructions

  • 4 yellow onions
  • salt
  • oil

Sauté the onions with oil and salt in a Dutch oven until caramelized.

  • 3 C vegetable broth
  • 3 lbs yams

Cut the yams into chunks and add them to the onions. Add vegetable broth. Simmer for a while.

  • 1 T crushed red pepper (optional)
  • 1 lb polish sausage
  • 4 green apples
  • 2 lbs carrots

Chop the apples and carrots and thinly slice the sausage. Add all of these. If you're using crushed red pepper, add it now as well. Simmer for a while longer.

  • 2 T worchestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp ground cloves
  • salt

Add the Worchestershire sauce and cloves. Salt to taste.

Notes

The term "Polish sausage" isn't really descriptive - the Polish are really into their sausages, and there are dozens of varieties. The one I've used and liked is an uncooked pork sausage that I think is mainly flavored with coriander. This goes quite well with the other ingredients. If using a different sausage, you may want to add coriander seed - perhaps fry it in the oil in the very beginning as you would for an Indian curry.

And as this is a stew, you can vary the amounts of things pretty freely. This recipe was recorded the second time I made it, and has significantly more yams and carrots. To reproduce the original version, which has a more pronounced sweet-and-sour taste, cut the yams and carrots by half, remove one apple and one onion, and adjust the seasonings to taste.
