Recipe tips
  • This recipe is high in vitamin A, which helps your immune system function at its best.
  • Stock cubes contain salt, so don't add any extra salt during cooking. When simmering the soup, you'll be reducing the water content and concentrating the salt content, so taste it once cooked and add salt only if needed.
  • Freezing instructions: Freeze in portions then defrost in the fridge, or defrost in a microwave and reheat thoroughly until piping-hot.
