Red pepper soup

[Proper Tidy]

I used to think it was an Irish soup until I found out it’s Indian

Raj thing isn't it, colonial british in india. I always thought anyway

I make a north african one which sounds like your first except I use chickpeas. Its proper good.

Your other three are good tinned soups though imo, not homemade or out. Have never seen mulligatawney on a menu

I didn’t realise it had to be home made

I know but I can imagine it said in an Irish accent

Like grated coconut and bananas served on the side? My mums side of the family were all from Africa (well Scottish and many generations). Never saw a curry since like they used to serve.

Is this banana on the side of a curry?

I make a squash soup but never heard of putting coconut in, might have to try this

Recipe! A bit messy as I've used it a few times. I don't often use the Thai fish sauce as I'm not a massive fan of it so leaving it out if you're a veggie and maybe adding more lime juice is fine.

Fab, gonna try this. Just have to figure out where to get knob ginger from

I made mulligatawny soup just the other day.

My favourite is broccoli and stilton if I'm having bread with it.
Otherwise I like a chunky vegetable or a lentil soup.

Made this yesterday. Tiger prawn, cheese, ginger and sesame dumplings in a dashi (with soy sauce and sherry) broth topped with toasted sesame seeds. Dashi is amazing.

I'll eat just about any soup tbh especially with some fresh bread but off the top of my head:

Oxtail if its homemade
Caldo Verde
Canja
Pea and Ham
Mushroom

That's the one!

I really do hate peeling and chopping butternut squash though so i have to really, really crave it in order to make it!

Never advisable to chop it up after a few glasses of wine. Did that years ago and sliced the tip of my finger off. Blood everywhere.

 

[bmd]

Butternut squash, coconut and chilli or a creamy pea soup.

You can buy it frozen, peeled and chopped. Same price as a large one for the same amount.

You're welcome.

I got kombu and bonito flakes off amazon then followed this video. (no chillis in mine anymore as I couldn't find sweet ones in the shop, don't be shy with the ginger)



You end up slurping the amazing broth, dipping sourdough in it works too.

I make a mean leek / chicken / spud soup, and my versions of mushroom or tomato isn't too bad as I fry with onions n black pepper for extra flavour.

Almost anything vegetable can be smooshed up as a soup.

I wish I'd ordered some soup with my online delivery that came this morning. Yesterday I didn't think I wanted soup, but today I do. Could make some but I feel a bit poorly and knackered. Hence wanting soup.

The soups on this thread all look delicious.

Jamaican Peppet Pot soup is delicious. And can be very spicy.

Pepper Pot Soup

This vegetarian soup, a Jamaican classic, is made with callaloo, a spinach-like green that can be found canned or fresh in Caribbean groceries.

Jerusalem artichokes do that too but I don't often have them lying around

I used to get a vegetable box for a while, and some months of the year it was a game of “what other combinations of Jerusalem artichokes, celeriac and kale can I think of?”

That’s basically why I gave up.

 

[furluxor]

Bookmarking this whole thread. I've got lots of favourites!

• another vote for mulligatawny - I used to have a recipe that used dried apricots but I can't find it, maybe it was in the Crank's cookbook; so good!
• leek and potato, with lots of black pepper and vegan yoghurt/cream
• sour cucumber soup from my childhood
• my partner's vegan pho

Oh god tell me about it! I gave up when I started to wake up in a cold sweat wondering how the hell I was going to use all that celery and carrots.
When you feel menaced by vegetables....it's time to stop....

We got a small one for a while, the quality was decent and the veg nice but i felt somewhat insulted by the prospect of fobbing chard or salad off as a meal. Certainly didn’t deserve to count as one of the five choices in the box

I was kindly given a meat box for my birthday with some excellent meats. Weirdly I got two ham hocks. I'd only used it to make ham and pea soup before so thought I'd try just cooking one. It was a bit average, so the next one will definitely become soup. I've just had to wait for space in the freezer for all the portions it will make. I'm going to try cooking it in the smoker, hopefully will make a difference to the soup.

 

[Saunders]

Ham hock and white beans as a slow cooked stew, with some leek and mustard, and then served with sprout tops or any green flavourful cabbage is a heavenly thing.

Umami and sulphur.
