This is a recipe I adapted from my grandmother's. This warm and comforting soup is easy to make and perfect for a Sunday evening with crusty ciabatta.

Ash-e-jow (Persian Barley Soup)

Recipe by: Autumn Leaves

Be the first to review it!

I've seen a lot of recipes for this soup; however, my mum-in-law adds tomato puree for a bit of a different flavour and she doesn't add any lentils or beans. It's thick, filling and delicious, and you could make it vegetarian by using vegetable stock.

Auntie Janet's Pasta Sauce or Soup

Recipe by: Lulu

Be the first to review it!

When our children were little my friend gave me this recipe which hides vegetables in the sauce; my children still love it as teenagers. It freezes very well so I am never without a quick meal to hand. It can be used on its own over pasta or with the addition of single cream makes a luxurious soup. A vegetarian version can be made without the bacon.

Authentic Thai Tom Yum Soup

Recipe by: STEVE ALDER

Be the first to review it!

An authentic Thai hot and sour soup. Do not attempt to omit the coriander, as this is essential. Use thai basil instead of regular basil if you can find it. Tom yum paste is hot, so try the soup before adding the chilli and decide if any extra heat is required. You can buy the paste in Asian supermarkets or there's a brand called "Thai taste" at Waitrose. This is well worth the trouble!

Basic Chicken Stock

Recipe by: Margaret Price

Reviews(4)

Chicken stock has almost endless uses, from soup bases and gravies to a rich but low fat flavouring for veggies. The stock freezes will in ice cube trays or bags. After trying homemade stock you will never want the shop-bought kind again.

Basic Fish Stock

Recipe by: SYLVIABC

Reviews(2)

Use this as a base for soups, sauces and risottos. Never use an oily fish for stock - no salmon, herring, mackerel, or sardines. Any other fish is more or less suitable, but sole, brill and turbot make excellent stock. If in doubt, ask your fishmonger.

Bean Soup in a Jar

Recipe by: WATERSMELON

Be the first to review it!

A variety of dried beans and lentils in a jar with a recipe attached - makes a great gift. Ask your butcher for a ham hock to make the soup with. It adds good flavour.

Bean, Sausage and Kale Soup

Recipe by: PIPPYMOE

Be the first to review it!

A Spanish-style bean soup that's packed with flavour. Andouille is a spicy, heavily smoked pork sausage that is often associated with Cajun cooking. If you can't find Andouille, try fresh chorizo or a spicy Italian sausage.

You can use fresh, raw, or cooked bones to make a meat stock, plus any lean meat scraps. Trim any fat or fatty skin from meat or bones before using for the stock.

Beetroot & Sweet Potato Soup

Recipe by: Aislingfitzpatrick

Be the first to review it!

I will admit that I like thick soup. This recipe is based on one that I found in a lovely tapas book and tweaked a little. If you do not have sweet potatoes handy then just use ordinary potatoes. Also, you can add 2 cloves of garlic if you are so inclined and just use water rather than veg stock in the soup.

Beetroot and orange soup

Recipe by: Maggie Pannell

Be the first to review it!

A luscious soup packed with vibrant vegetables. The beetroot provides the vivid fuchsia colour and the carrots, fennel, celery and orange all contribute to the superb flavour. It's also good served chilled.

Black bean chilli

Recipe by: Brenda Houghton

Be the first to review it!

This main dish has a rich, smoky flavour and tastes great with lemon-scented rice. This dish makes up one part of of a Tex-Mex vegetarian buffet and is ideal for serving alongside green rice, salsa cruda, stir-fried vegetables, rich roast onions, and coriander and cabbage slaw (all of which can be found on this site).
