1 can chicken broth (14.5 oz) 2 cups water 3 small to medium potatoes, diced 1 small onion diced 1 stalk celery, diced (optional) 1/2 tsp. salt (divided) 1/4 tsp. pepper 1 1/2 cups milk 1 large egg 1/2 cup all purpose flourCombine broth, water, potatoes, onion, celery, pepper and half the salt. Cover and boil until potatoes are soft, (about 20 min). As the potatoes cook, break the egg in a small bowl, mix with fork, add remaining salt, and add the flour gradually mixing with a fork, cutting the flour into the egg as it makes ribbles that resemble small pieces of noodles. Add a little more flour if the mixture is too wet to break into ribbles. When the potatoes are soft, add one and a half cups of milk. Bring back to a boil and sprinkle the ribbles into the potatoes, breaking up with fingers as necessary as you sprinkle. Stir and let simmer, uncovered, for about 5 minutes. Makes about 5 Cups.
