Easy peasy soup squeezy ....
As I am finding out lately, soup could not be easier to make. All you do is sweat down some vegetables and add your stock... then voila, a lovely home-made lunch or dinner.
Red lentils and carrots go brilliantly together and I added a nice kick with some dried chillies (fresh would be just as good if not better) and cumin seeds.
These home-baked, herby cheese scones are a great accompaniment and a nice change from your normal soup and bread marriage.
Tip: adding mustard to the milk or mustard powder to the flour adds a little extra to these soft tasty scones.
