    Thanks Irishbird... I will be trying this for sure.

    Question - if you blend it does the lentils not get blended too? If so, how do you even taste them?


    Today I had absolutely fab BLT bap (brown) with warmed streaky bacon and cheese on it!

    A lovely Friday treat......


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 10,661 ✭✭✭✭John Mason

    Cully & Sully's vegetable soup. Really creamy and delicious and the ingredients list is wonderfully short and pronounceable. I usually make my own soups but this was definitely a winner for a store-bought option.

    Can I ask the recipie? Thanks.


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 10,661 ✭✭✭✭John Mason


    I dont use soup recipes, i grab whatever i have lying around and throw it in a pot, boil until veg are soft and blend. soup is the easist thing in the world

    but this is what i done

    Ingredients:
    use whatever vegetables are in your fridge - this batch has

    potato, turnip, cabbage, carrots, parsnip, leek

    Onion
    Garlic
    Herbs
    tin of Tomatos
    lentils
    pint of stock

    Method
    1. Fry some onion and garlic until golden

    2. Add some herbs (i used parsely, thyme and rosemary)

    3. Throw the veg and lentil in and stir for about 5 mins

    4. Add tin of tomatos

    5. Add Stock

    6. Simmer until veg is soft

    7. I dont like lumpy soup, so i blend it fully and it also means des has no idea what vegetables are in it and cant refuse to eat it :D
