FFwD - Warm weather pot au feu

This week's French Friday with Dorie has become French Sunday with Dorie - but better late than never, eh?

The dish at the top of this post is Warm Weather Pot Au Feu - because this group is based in the United States, where it is summer, not in Australia, where it is winter.  However, I was easily able to obtain all of the vegetables required, including asparagus.

The Pot Au Feu is a chicken stock based broth flavoured with onion, garlic and leek, and with carrot, potato, mushroom, asparagus and spinach (in my case, Swiss chard) added.  I also popped in some tinned corn that I needed to use up.  The broth is topped with a soft boiled egg.

For me, the highlight was the egg.  The rest of the soup was a little ho hum, and not something I'd make again.  Sorry, this is just not my thing, although I understand that lots of other people enjoyed it.  On to next week!
