Potato is a traditional French stew with beef and vegetables. But at the same time it is also a soup - because most often the consistency of pot-au-feu is not particularly thick. And besides, it is often eaten in the same way as, for example, shurpa or kyufta-bozbash: vegetables separately, broth separately. That is, both the first and second courses in one serving.
