When I make veg soup, i just grate loads of veg into a stock pot with a few stock cubes bring to the boil and simmer for an hour or so...
I use mostly root veg but not parsnip as it makes it sweet. It's really good if you wap a ham in to to boil with it but I'm guessing you might be a veggie.

I also put a little bit of grated cheese and a few croutons in to serve. Yum

ooh care to share the recipe??

When i make veg soup i like the veg sliced up quite chunky which most people don't like.

I only know how to make soup from left over whole chicken its damn good though haha

 

[mum2A&L]

nah, not a veggie. I love my meat to much
So i can put almost any veg in that i want. im planning to go to the market next week, and i always have loads, so i thought this would be a good way of using it. I can take it into work with me for lunch and stuff. If i heat the soup up in the morning and pop it in a flask thingy, do you think it will still be warm enough at lunch?



heres the recipe for the carrott one:

Ingredients
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 onion, sliced
450g/1lb carrots, sliced
1 tsp ground coriander
1.2 litresl/2 pints vegetable stock
large bunch fresh coriander, roughly chopped
salt and freshly ground black pepper



Method
1. Heat the oil in a large pan and add the onions and the carrots. Cook for 3-4 minutes until starting to soften.
2. Stir in the ground coriander and season well. Cook for 1 minute.
3. Add the vegetable stock and bring to the boil. Simmer until the vegetables are tender.
4. Whizz with a hand blender or in a blender until smooth. Reheat in a clean pan, stir in the fresh coriander and serve.

Becksss - do share!!!

Put the carcus in2 a slow cooker or i suppose a big pan
1 pint of water slow cooker on low 4 the night
in morn turn off so it cools
pick of all the chicken pieces so they are all in water and add chicken gravy granules possibly sweetcorn
and then reheat to serve

hiya

anything makes a soup chick

just add what you want boil it up and thicken it up with a potato or two at the end . Use vegetable stock whilst boiling the begetables. Then blend it all up in a blender or have it chunky

i regularly make carrot and potato soup. its so easy.

Just stick it in ap an and boil. go for it

My mum also makes a home made chicken soup with the left over chicken, she does the same as your mum becks, but she puts chicken oxo cubes in, she also puts potatoes, carrots, onions and leaks in! Its lovely![/url]

Erm you mean you leave out your chicken carcass for foxes? Not a good idea as bones once cooked can splinter when eaten (and dogs and foxes eat the bones) and cause serious problems to canines. Chicken bones are well known for this. Just thought you should know

I make a carrot and ginger (great for morning sickness for some methinks) soup.

Lots of carrots (I think I used about 6-8 large ones usually) - chopped
One onion - chopped
Fresh ginger - about 1 inch piece
Ground ginger
Veg stock cube

Gently fry off onion in butter or oil until soft. Add carrots and a dash of ground ginger to the onions and fry gently for a couple of minutes. stirring all the time.

Bring water to boil and add carrots and onion from pan. Crumble in veg stock cube and add fresh grated ginger and leave to simmer till cooked.

Once cooked, leave to cool then puree or blend. Thin out by adding more water if preferred. I tend to like it rather thick. Warm up as needed or freeze.
