I always imagine myself to be one of those people who can whip up a hearty soup for a warming dinner from things languishing in the fridge, but they always turn out so flavourless. Currently on hob soup consists of:
onion
butternut squash
carrots
red pepper
2x yellow pepper
2 bay leaves
rosemary
thyme
2 chicken stock cubes
green and yellow lentils
1 tin kidney beans
1 panic spoonful of marmite (always add this to stew so think that was my logic?)
It's just lumps of veg in water basically Should I blend a few ladelfuls to make it more hearty and thick? What can I add to give some flavour?
Oh I do actually have some frozen shredded rotisserie chicken in the freezer which I could add, but not sure how I'd defrost it safely in time for tonight?
Thanks!
