Finnish Pea Soup

This Pea Soup (Hernekeitto) is a traditional Finnish dish that’s particularly delightful on those cold winter days! It’s filling and nutritious, and suitable for most diets as it’s gluten and dairy-free. Furthermore, it can easily be turned into a vegan dish by simply leaving the pork out. If you are a fan of mushy peas you are going to love it, but if mushy peas are not your cup of pea (sorry I couldn’t resist!), it’s best to leave it for others because as the name implies, peas really are the hero of this dish!

Jerusalem Artichoke Soup

Jerusalem Artichokes are a beautiful seasonal root vegetable that have this earthy, sweet and nutty flavour – if you haven’t come across them before, you are missing out! My favourite method of using them is in a soup, I find Jerusalem Artichoke Soup absolutely divine: it’s creamy and comforting, yet not heavy. It tastes like something you’d get served in a fancy restaurant, there’s something “gourmet” about it. However do not worry, it’s actually very easy to make at home and you only need a handful of ingredients to prepare this bowlful of goodness!

Exotic Chicken Soup

Chicken soup is one of those heartwarming dishes that always hits the spot! You just cannot go wrong with good old chicken soup, the ultimate cold remedy (or so they say). I love experimenting with chicken soup as it’s such a versatile dish, but this “Exotic” Chicken Soup is the one I always come back to. It’s super quick and easy to make, but absolutely delicious! I call it exotic because of the bananas… yes, bananas! Don’t judge until you’ve tried it, banana really works with the other flavours!

Beef Mince & Lentil Soup

This hearty Moroccan-inspired Beef mince & Lentil Soup is packed with flavour and goodness! It’s almost like a quick stew, a perfect midweek’s dinner you can throw together in under an hour. Lentils can be such a bland ingredient, but this soup is definitely far from boring as the nutritious lentils are paired with lovely spices, mince and vegetables. Rich and comforting, particularly enjoyable on a chilly day!
