Some of our favourite soup recipes
- Lentil soup
Add the carrots and leeks, and season (don’t add salt if you use ham stock as it will make it too salty). Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 45 mins-1 hr until the lentils have broken down. - Beetroot soup
Heat the oil or butter in a large heavy-based saucepan. Add the beetroot, carrot, celery, potato, onion and garlic, then sauté for a couple of minutes until the veg are well combined and coated with the fat. Add the stock and season with salt and black pepper.
