This laksa is full of vibrant flavours and a meal in a bowl. I found the recipe in ” Real Food” by Nigel Slater, which remains one of my favourite recipe books .
Another soup from ” Greenfeast: autumn, winter” by Nigel Slater. I have also seen a version of this recipe where pork meatballs are added to the soup. You can use any stock you like for this soup- homemade, ready made from a supermarket or made up from bouillion powder.
Aquacotta is a simple but classic Italian soup from the Maremma coastal region of Tuscany. I found this version in Claire Thomson’s “Veggie Family Cook Book “.
A hearty vegetarian soup from Tajikstan which I found in ” Samarkand” by Caroline Eden and Eleanor Ford. As an alternative to the herb paste you can add a dollop of herbed Suzma or you can just stir in some chopped greens for the final 5 minutes of cooking.
A spicy, creamy, comforting soup from Egypt which I found in ” Med” by Claudia Roden. If you like you can serve with a caramalised onion garnish. Instructions for this are at the end of the recipe.
This is more substantial than a soup and makes a filling lunch or supper served with some fresh bread. The recipe is from ” The Hidden Hut” by Simon Stallard.
