Have made a vegetable broth - what could i use to spice it up - for children?

[NotanOtter]

I thought of lea and perrins but that has anchovies in and i am vegetarian.

I just think its a bit bland..

its

1 red onion
1 white onion
courgettes
a cabbage
suede
carrots
red peppers
green peppers

what else could i add oh clever cooks!!

do dee daa daaa doooooo

Some dried herbs?
Sorry, dieting and trying NOT to think about food!

You can get vegetarian worcester sauce. I buy it from Tesco. It's in the free from aisle. Don't know if it's any good or not though - I buy it for DH. It probably won't be bland if you use a vegetable stock - I like Marigold powder which is vegetarian. You could add a teaspoon of curry powder - it won't make it hot just add a bit of flavour.

yes - i have done lizzie!!

You are allowed to think about a healthy veg soup when dieting!!!

thats chop chop - fab ideas! will do- can you get that marigold in normal supermarkets?

Marigold powder then?

Sorry - just noticed one of your ingredients is suede - won't that be a bit chewy?

i blitzed it!

For kids to make it more zingy but without making them scream with pain I use ginger and garlic and a bit of black pepper, maybe a pinch of paprika

i also added a tin of green lentils

That sounds nice ABITanxious- i steer away from garlic as they eat at school and all seem to spend their lives reeking of it

mushroom ketchup and or a teaspoon of marmite. I always add marmite to veggie stew as it (scuse the pun) beefs it up a bit

great - will do bewilder - good for them too

Not heard of mushroom ketchup!

you can get it in the supermarket its quite a thin liquid and it's really nice in stews, soups, pies etc just adds a bit of extra savory to things

lol at suede! My two like a bit of cumin in veggie soup; it gives it warmth and flavour without heat.

what is so funny about suede????!!!!

Any way i am so so so so pleased with the broth
its onions-carrots- red and green peppers- potatoes- suede (!) three tins of tomatoes-courgettes- broccolli -green lentils- herbes and marigold vegetable bouillon - its absolutely YUM!!!

Ds2 enjoying it now!

Ds1 and dd just rung to say they cant wait! I am so pleased
Thanks all!

lea and perrins has anchovies in it?!!!

With all those peppers and the carrots, a bit of jerk seasonign would be nice.

whats jerk Kelly?

def Marigold powder - I use it my soups and kids like them

west indian / jamaican spice blend

NOA -I think you mean swede, not suede

I hadn't even noticed that!

Glad you're pleased with it, Notanotter; it sounds lovely.
