I'm having bland microwave lasagne. Dilemma is whether to eat it out the plastic dish to save on the washing up... -

I had planned to make a gallon of pea and ham the other week in the worst of the bad weather. Then I realised that we had run out of yellow split peas, so I improvised with a cup of winter broth grains and a cup of red lentils- it worked like a charm
mmmm .... with thick crusty bread

OK.
(1) Go round the supermarket veg section. Select whatever they've got that looks nice. Place in basket until heavy.
(2) Chop up & put in the huge aluminium pan that you somehow ended up with after leaving a particularly large houseshare. Leave big chunks, because although it's "soup" you should still be able to eat most of it with a fork. Except beetroot, which doesn't go very soft. Slice that up quite small.
(3) Add liquid to half cover the veg, depending on which of the 3 soup subclasses you fancy. For normal soup, add water. For salty soup, add stock. For creamy soup (good with beetroot because it goes a bright playdough colour), add water and a pot of double cream.
(4) Add fancy bits i.e. ginger, garlic, chilli or crushed juniper berries.
(5) Simmer. If hungry, also grill some sausages to chuck in at the end.
A 1/4 full shopping basket should yield about 3 litres of soup, which should easily cover any non-restaurant meals in the week.Comment
