Now that the weather is getting cooler, I just love a big bowl of nourishing soup to warm me up from the inside. This soup is very simple but bursting with a delicious delicate flavour. It is based on the recipe in Sabrina Ghayour’s book Simply. I used greek yoghurt instead of double cream […]
Over lockdown last time I made Miso Soup as part of a Japanese Feast, but it was way too salty. So I decided I had to do a “redemption” (Australia MasterChef phrase used all the time!!!) Miso Soup – and this time it was perfect. I still have some packets of Dashi which I purchased […]
I love soup for lunch on cold days and I made this delicious Mushroom Soup using both fresh and dried Mushrooms. It gave it a great depth of flavour. Good for freezing in portions for when you need a hug in a bowl!!! It is Gluten, Dairy, Wheat free and Vegan, so ticks lots of […]
I had left over Roast Chicken and Chicken Stock made from the roast Chicken bones and vegetables, so thought I would make this Chicken Noodle Soup with a delicious Ginger and Sesame Dressing. This served 4 of us! It is very easy and quick to prepare. If you use Tamari instead of Soy Sauce it […]
I have cultivated a patch of Nettles in my veggie garden and a few Sunday’s ago I saw a recipe in the Independent by Susan Jane White for Nettle Soup so decided to make it and finally use up some of my fast growing Nettles. I did manage to sting my leg with them, but […]
My challenge was to make a Fish Chowder which was delicous but Dairy and Gluten Free, still keeping that rich creamy consistency. I am delighted with this Chowder, it is delicious and creamy but also at the same time light. This reheats perfectly as long as you do it gently. It is perfect for a […]
I love a warming bowl of soup for lunch in this grey and dreary weather. I made a big pot of this soup which we have been having for lunch this week. My daughter takes it to school in a flask so she has something warming in the middle of the day. It lasts very […]
Clematis growing in my vege garden – a lovely colourful addition – and yes those nettles are meant to be there !!! I am growing a small Nettle patch to make Nettle Soup and Nettle Tea. They are thought of as an annoying prickly weed, but they are packed with nutrients. They are a great […]
A very quick and easy to prepare Seafood Thai Noodle Soup. As it is so quick to make, it is perfect for dinner on a busy night. The quantities here made four very good sized portions. I use Marks and Spencer’s little tubs of Thai Red Curry Paste, they are a very handy thing to […]
A few nights ago we had a Roast Chicken Dinner, so I used the bones to make a delicious stock which I used to make this Chicken Noodle Soup. 24 hours before eating the soup, marinate the Chicken Breasts in the Coconut Milk and Star Anise. Cover and put in the refridgerator. This will infused […]
