I am forever making lentil soup. It's our favourite and the best way of getting nutrients into us all I've found.
I'd like to try some new soup recipes that would be suitable for brexit cupboard ingredients, do am hoping others will share theirs,
My soup uses fresh carrots and celery but these are UK grown and therefore we should be able to get hold of them, although prices might go up. Tinned carrots could be used, or frozen carrots and celery.
The recipe originally contains onion and garlic but my ibs does not thank me for those ingredients especially together.
Bercow's Fart Lentil Soup --
--
2 pints boiling water
2 vegetable oxo cubes
2-3 bay leaves depending on size
5 oz red split lentils -well rinsed in a sieve
4 large us here carrots- quartered lengthways and chopped
3-4 sticks celery-cut lengthways then chopped
Put the boiling water in a large pan with the oxos and bay leaves.
Add the lentils.
Chop the veg and add to the pan.
Bring to the boil and simmer for around an hour.
I no longer measure the ingredients apart from the oxos and bay leaves; I do it by eye now as I've been making it for decades.
I like vegetarian dumplings with mine and the children like crusty bread and butter.
