Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

Based on the classic leek and potato soup, this version has asparagus and sugarsnap peas added, and it is enriched with yogurt rather than cream for a lighter, lower-fat result. Traditionally served chilled, the soup can also be served hot, so it is ideal for days when the weather is changeable.

Onion family soup with Gruyère croûtes

Recipe by: Maggie Pannell

Be the first to review it!

The secret of this rich, warming soup lies in the slow cooking of the onions and leeks, in just a little butter and oil, until lightly caramelised. Thinly sliced potatoes add extra carbohydrate and help to thicken the stock. Complemented by crunchy cheese and walnut-topped croûtes, it makes a satisfying lunch or supper dish.

Recipe by: Norma MacMillan

Be the first to review it!

This soup is based on pistou, the classic French soup from Provence. Laden with vegetables and pasta, and flavoured with pesto, the delicious basil and Parmesan sauce, it makes a fabulous change from minestrone, its Italian counterpart. French bread is the traditional accompaniment, plus a glass of wine.
