It’s freezing cold out there with patchy frost! The temperature dropped to -4 Celcius! I now realise winter isn’t interesting at all, unless it snows which makes me excited (just for a while). Don’t know why but I guess it’s nice. (Kristin, I’m sure you agree with me! Let’s build snowman this year in front of ermmmm.. not anywhere near the dump! *LOL*) I believe staying indoor is the best option.
As there were some carrots, turnips and some potatoes, I thought a warm bowl of goodness would be a good idea. So, I decided to make Lamb & Winter Vegetable Soup last night. I like this sort of cooking where I cut all the vegetables into chuncks or cubes and let Le Creuset cocotte does its wonders of slow cooking.
As you may remember, I cooked Ratatouille using myLe Creuset. It’s really a life-time kitchen item that is worth investing in.Β For lamb and winter vegetables soup, you can substitute any root vegetables you fancy. Don’t know about your but I particular like turnips because of their unique taste. The only chore of cooking lamb and winter vegetables soup is to chop all the ingredients. Then, you can just sit and watch your telly while waiting for your lamb and winter vegetable soup to be cooked and served.
This soup looks delicious, I love the toasted bread to serve it with! Great recipe. π
I must say, I’m not a fan of the cold. But, golly, I do like vegetable soups and lamb adds such a nice richness. Yes, turnips are great – I wish more people would use them.
Yeah, i agree with you but we can build it at your house… easy for both of us to get to from work π we can sneak out at lunchtime and just not come back… thats my plan!!!
yummy, that looks so good, healthy and wholesome though!
[jeena] Thanks for your comment. I do like to have soup with a piece of good bread π
[Christine] Turnips make really good dishes. I love the Chinese turnips too!!
[Kristin] Can’t agree with you more! You should try making this dish – easy and nice!
