After reading about Technodoll's fabulous sounding soup, I thought I'd have a go at making some of my own.
Fry up half a chopped onion, half a sliced leek, 4 halved new charlotte potatoes, 1 sliced carrot, a few chopped slices of chorizo, 1 can of green lentils, 1 can of butter beans, 1 sliced parsnip, a few splashes of tobasco, pepper, herbs de Provence and a little salt. Then add enough water to fill the pan.
Bring to the boil and then simmer for 20 minutes, pad out with rice if desperate for carbs.
This is perfect for a chilly British Summer afternoon. Eat in front of the fire staring out at the swallows on the telephone wires who are probably plotting an early migration this year...

Yum, soup! That looks like a wonderful recipe.
I may have to try your version... mmmmmm! Soup is a staple in my life - the possibilities are endless, when you have a little imagination (and alot of leftovers, LOL).
Just pretend it's autumn and all will be fine... a very long autumn.

oh my dear, you are so very lovely in all respects, even culinary loveliness... I wish I had a kitchen to attempt this soup, but I will forward it to my Mum asap : )
ROFL! my version of soup is as follows:
1 bag of tesco casserole mix
1 bag of frozen lamb
2 stock cubes
Chuck on the hob
And that is that!
