Three Mushroom Soup with Parmesan Crisps
It’s that time of year again when the soups make an appearance. I don’t think there isn’t a soup that I don’t like. I opted for mushroom this time. I didn’t want to use cream so I used 3 different mushrooms instead. The flour worked perfectly as the thickener. I didn’t have any bread so…
Cumin, Carrot, Ginger and Cashew Nut Soup

Chinese Leftover Chicken, Sweetcorn, Egg and Noodle Soup
Chicken roast is so simple but probably my favourite roast of all time, I always have Yorkshire puddings and crispy roast potatoes and no veg 🫣. Chicken gravy is epic too if you use the chicken juices and a good quality stock. So after my roast I had a gorgeous carcass left and I always…
Jerusalem Artichoke and Mushroom Soup
When I went to the farm shop at the weekend to get vegetables and salad for the week I was surprised to see that they still had the knobbly but tasty Jerusalem artichokes. I usually have them as a purée but they worked so well in this earthy soup. The apple really lifts the flavour…
