Description

A hearty and comforting stoemp made with Yukon gold potatoes and carrots.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and diced into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 large carrots, peeled and sliced about 1/4-inch thick (about 1 1/2 cups)
  • 1 1/4 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 2 bay leaves, optional
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • A small pinch of grated nutmeg, optional

Instructions

  1. Add potatoes, carrots, chicken broth, milk, bay leaves, and salt to a large pot and set over medium-high heat.
  2. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, then lower the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes and carrots are completely tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
  3. If you notice the milk is frothing up too much, remove the cover and it should still have some texture.
  4. Taste, adding salt and pepper as needed.
  5. Scoop the stoemp into your serving dish of choice and top with the remaining butter before serving.
  6. Store cooled leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
  7. You can use leftover stoemp as a base for potato pancakes or Irish boxty.
