Sausage and Vegetable Soup (Metzelsuppe)

Peel the potatoes and cut into cubes. Peel the carrots and slice. Clean and cut the celery in half, and then into slices. Wash, clean and cut the scallion into rings. Fry the celery, the potatoes and carrots in hot butter until translucent. Pour the broth over them, and simmer for about 10 minutes. Add the scallions and simmer evenly for another 5-10 minutes.
