Winter Soups. Whats your favourite?

In terms of ingredients to taste ratio, I've not come across many better than this;

Rough cut and roast 3 red peppers for 15 mins
Chop onion and fry for 5 mins
3 cloves garlic
Throw in the roasted peppers
Couple pinches salt
Fistful of red lentils
2 litres of chicken stock
Cook for 25 and blend

Season to taste. Honestly, it's really pretty bloody tasty

I too made my own bread with garlic and sun dried tomatoes, dusted with herbs and garlic salt. Anybody who wants that recipe from The Bread ****, let me know. :)

WTF is happening to ye MP? : /

I liked you best when you were a rough arse Glasgae transpotting Bells injecting string vest wearing fried everything fooker living in a midden, pal.

All this posh soup bollocks isn't befitting of your Rab C Nesquick persona I have(sorry had) of you.

If you said scum dried tomatoes I'm with ya. You're just a wannabe hipster and you're no longer endearing at all. Yer just a pretentious tab butt breath toe-rag twat.

Well in my mind you still are, mate; )

Stuck where?

See helpful hint no 3

Anyway, helpful soup hint No 1. Put a dash of soy sauce in whatever you make. I guarantee it will taste better for it.

helpful hint No 2. When making soup with sweet veg like parsnip or sweet potatoes or squash, 1/2 can of coconut milk and juice of half a lime mixed in at the end will really lift the flavour.

Helpful hint No 3. Don't eat minestrone when you are ill. Vomiting shortly after eating can create pasta shell nose blockages.

Never tried soy in anything other than Chinese soup, so will give that a try.

A squirt of HP sauce works well in veg soup too

Same idea. Doesn’t change the taste but gives it more depth.

Soy is good but Lea Perrins is worth a go as well or if you are feeling a bit "Yorkshire" try Henderson's relish, made in Sheffield, locals swear by it (vegan too for all you meat dodgers out there).

Little desire to derail the thread and am aware it's not a soup but I really do like stew and dumplings with lashings of HP to carry us both through these long inclement winter nights. It keeps the body warm and satiated, especially when the days are still short. If I am not allowed to have stew and dumplings as a thread choice then Heinz Cream Of Mushroom is a very good runner up when served with brown seeded bread .. even if it has less taste than it used too. A touch bland and in need of added seasoning but still a good effort @60p a can.
