Ingredients:
- the basics are ...
- 2 leeks
- 3 carrots
- 4 potatoes
- knob of butter
- seasoning
- a really big soup pot
- you can use chunks of cooked meat too, chicken works especially well , and whatever else you've got that needs to be used! i sometimes use parsnips, turnip , even peppers.
Directions:
- Soak the broth mix overnight
- Roughly chop all the vegetables and the garlic into reasonably small pieces. If you like it chunky, keep them bigger. This one's all about personal preferences.
- Heat the butter in the pot and fry the vegetables until they're beginning to soften
- Drain the broth mix and add it to the pot, along with the stock, adding more or less depending on how thick you like it (this is usually when I realise the pot isn't big enough!) If I'm using cooked meat I add it at this point
- Add the chopped herbs and season to taste
- Allow to simmer until the vegetables are softened
- Serve with a big chunk of bread and butter
- It makes a lot so I usually freeze it in portions ladelled into freezer bags
