Thick Onion Soup & Cheese Biscuits
A hearty, tasty soup that makes a great lunch dish, especially when served with the homemade cheese biscuits!
Artichoke and Carrot Broth
A lovely, chunky soup which tastes superb – the sweet, nutty taste of the artichokes combining beautifully with the other vegetable and herbs. Adding the bread and cheese topping is optional but turns the dish into a substantial lunch and makes it look even more special. Any reasonable strong cheese, that melts well, would be a suitable substitute for the Red Leicester. Mature cheddars and Gruyère are particularly good.
Borsch
Borsch soup has been a staple menu item on the tables of Eastern Europe for centuries and is made using a wide variety of different vegetables. The version made with beetroot, which originated in the Ukraine, is the one with which we are most familiar in Britain.
