A German classic from Schleswig-Holstein: in the Angeln region the first young vegetables of the summer are cooked in milk until they are tender and the liquid turns creamy. Potatoes, beans, carrots, kohlrabi and peas taste mild and sweet, and plenty of parsley and a knob of butter or margarine round off the pot. Slices of smoked farmhouse ham are served alongside.

Instructions

1
Peel the potatoes and cut them into cubes of about 2 cm. Peel the carrots and cut them into slices; peel the kohlrabi and cut it into batons.
2
Trim the green beans and break them into bite-sized pieces. Wash the spring onions and cut them into fine rings.
3
Bring the milk to the boil in a wide pan with the water and the salt. Add the diced potatoes and cook them uncovered over a low heat, stirring occasionally.
4
Add the beans, carrots and kohlrabi and cook on until the vegetables are just tender.
5
Fold in the peas and the spring onions and let them heat through only briefly.
6
Add the butter or margarine to the pan and stir until it has melted. Season with pepper and the grated nutmeg.
7
Chop the parsley and stir it in. Serve the Schnüsch in deep plates with the slices of farmhouse ham alongside.
