My favourite recipe is make stock from a ham shank then strip all the meat of and stick in the soup add one cup of mixed lentils and split peas, some kale (substitute with one large leak if no kale), an onion and three carrots salt and pepper to taste cook it up then eat it tomorrow and the next day and the next just remember and boil it for 10 minutes every day.Does anyone have a healthy soup recipe that good for cold weather?
Yes I do! I don't use specific quantities I just throw it in and mix and match with other ingredients depending on whats in the cupboard. It is quite a heavy soup but very comforting and warming.





Heat a little olive in a sturdy pan.


Add roughly chopped onion, garlic, some chilli powder and dried herbs (usually rosemary and basil)


Add carrot, swede, parsnip


Add Tin tomatos %26amp; baked beans, some tomato puree and sweet chilli sauce


Add dired pulses (lentils, spilt peas, black eyed beans, pasta etc)


Add hot vegetable or chicken stock to cover ingredients plus an inch. Add stock as required throughout cooking and to achieved desired consistancy.


Allow to simmer on medium heat for half an hour then reduce to low and heat for upwards of 1hour.





You can then blend the soup if required but I prefer it chunky.
carrots, potatoes, onions, brocolli, suede, water


mix up and boil until all resistance is gone.


Serve up with cretins.
Onion and potato soup is lovely!





3 -4 large onions


6 large potatoes


A little olive oil


3 cups of white wine





Peel and cube potatoes. Wash thoroughly then add to a pan of hot water which you add the white wine to and cooked until tender. The water/wine mix is the liquid part of the soup.


Slice the onions and cook very slowly in a separate pan, with the olive oil until soft and slightly caramelised.


When cooked keep some of the onion and potato back to add texture to the finished soup.


Mix the potato and onion together, using the liquid you cooked the potato in, and blitz in the food processor.


Season carefully!


Add the potato and onion you kept back and serve with crusty bread.





Delicious





Cheap, easy to make, tasty and simple. The ideal soup recipe!
My favorite, from my Irish Gran:


Adjust of course to match how many people you are feeding or if you want left overs. If your fridge is large enough to keep leftovers, this will be good for four days, and the little skin on top is actually quite good:


Cream of Potato:


About a KG of potatoes.


.5 or so of butter


Flour, mix with butter and mash up, adjust for the thickness you want in your soup.


About a litre of milk, some cream if you have it.


Peel boil, mash potatoes in the liquid. Mix in milk, and put in the butter-flour. If not thick enough, add in a bit more flour and butter, it just makes it richer.


If you have a bit of left over gammon, or a rasher of bacon or so, that can go in too, for flavor. Teeny chopped or sliced carrots, a few peas can give colour.


A bit of cheese on top can also add to the variety.


This is a really sturdy soup, high cal, but super filling. Generally was served with bread of whatever variety was available, butter if preferred, and kept my hardworking grandfather fueled up on the coldest of days.


When I was a kid, it seemed like Gran didn't know how to fix a meal that did not have potatoes included.
