I am gonna say butternut squash, carrot and sweet potato (with chilli flakes obvs).
And also Jamaican red pea soup which I’m currently trying to find a good vegan recipe for because I miss it a great deal. I used to have this when it was cold or I was unwell and they are just such great memories of feeling better. |

Too many to mention.
But Sweetcorn. Pea and mint. Carrot n coriander. French onion. Sweet potato. Are just a few that can be made quickly from the ingredients I probably already have.
I keep it really simple for soups. |

"Cheshire soup
I had to Google this
And now you want to make it
I'm afraid I don't. Veg, oats and cheese"
Oh this reminded me of Mexican Cheese Soup. Damn, takes a lot of time and effort but wow. I love that bowl of cholesterol  |

As a Scot it’s basically our National dish!
Spiced roasted carrot and butternut squash is a favourite here
Scotch broth - but I make a veggie version
Carrot and coriander
Tomato and Italian herbs and garlic

"My two go to ones are homemade lentil or roast pepper and tomato.
The BBC good food Roast pepper and tomato is the recipe I follow."
Bbc good food is a great site. I don’t always religiously follow the recipes many have been tweaked over the years but great for ideas and for reminding me of baking proportions |

Too be fair, soup is usually made with the stuff that's left over come the end of the week.
No fixed recipes so to speak, more a little bit of a ready steady cook moment.

I had a soup maker, but gave it away as it was too much faff to clean afterwards. I find a good pot and a stick blender works much better.
Just made a batch of lentil & bacon using the BBC good food recipe, so another vote for that site. |

Nice thread idea. Coming from est europe there is no day without soup in my menu and being a chef is always home made ones. If i could i would love to share with you a variety of soups also i wouldn’t say no to a lady or couple from London not far from (NW) that want to invite me at their home let me cook for them and serve the food.
About What soup i like, there are so many. East european soup style and also big lover of cream soup. |

My sister makes Carrot & Orange - personally I don’t like it, but you might. She made me a nice one last week that had chicken stock, lettuce, fennel, green split peas, onion and whatever else she had needing used up, and have to say it was nice! When cooked blend together.
I’ve ate little else besides soup in the last week and lost 4.5lbs |

I use tomato, sweet potatoes, peppers & lentils to make soup from scratch. Sometimes I'll add carrots and 1 red onion to this aswell. Aubergines can work too.
Cook it in lots of water, using a bit of garlic and ginger & mizo paste & a small amount of salt. Towards the end, I'll add black pepper, lime & a tiny amount of chilli. |

SJ,
Yes please, I would love to know how you do it.
What I have done is:
In a heavy based soup pan, dry fry crushed chillies until they pop. Add a rough chopped onion and soften with a small knob of butter. Add the sweet potato & coconut milk. Bring to a simmer until the sweet potato softens. Then blitz the whole lot with a stick blender.
Serve with hot bread. |

The best soup I ever had was a tomato and ham soup in a pub in York. Not just the flavours but also the texture. It was lovely and thick. And the freshly baked alm batch that came with it was lovely.
Oddly enough I just had soup for lunch. Got a pot of warming carot last night reduced to clear of 67p. It's gone down nicely. |

I make a split pea and bacon soup.
500g of yellow split peas
1 pack of cooking bacon from Lidl (less any slices good for sandwiches)
Water - never measure, maybe 2 litres.
In the pressure cooker for 18 minutes at pressure then slow release.
Blitz then add salt to taste and extra water if needed.
Perfect winter soup. |
