Ham & Lentil
Stock from your boiled ham (add extra water/stock cube if there's not enough), add finely chopped medium onion, finely grated large carrott, 1 cup of orange lentils, half a cup of yellow split peas and ground black pepper to taste.
Boil until the veg and pulses are soft then, mash with a spud masher while still on the heat until you get the texture & thickness you like.
Serve with crusty bread.

Originally posted by Lockhouse View PostNot really, the soup I make uses mussels as the base not chicken stock, this gives it a much thicker consistency, plus I use less lemongrass and more coriander and green chilli. I also use proper fish and shellfish not the standard prawn, crab claw, green mussels and plastic squid you get normally.
Often I just put all the aromatics (lime leaves, coriander root, ginger, lemongrass) in with shallots, garlic, mushrooms, chillis and tomatoes and simmer for about a half hour and then turn it off.
You can then use that as a base for tom yung or a laksa.

Brocolli and Silton, but only good if they go overboard on the cheese
