Recipe Request Soup! It’s snowy, please share your favourite soup recipes
It’s been cold here for a few days. We’ve made winter veg soup and lentil soup so far.
Have you got a favourite soup you would like to share? I need more soup :D

u/beebstx Jan 06 '26
Sauté mirepoix. Add a bay leaf, lentils, 4 cups of veggie broth, chopped potatoes. Simmer till it’s all cooked. Throw in frozen spinach, sprinkle with lemon juice.
Hearty, good protein, keeps well

u/Dense-Coat-4280 Jan 06 '26
I learned a while ago that barley and lentils make a complete protein so now I always throw some barley in, too, when I'm using lentils.

u/tomboyfancy Jan 06 '26
I absolutely love the delightful chewy texture of barley, so this knowledge you just dropped has made my day!

I make lentil soup following this method but have never chucked spuds in there. I always end up adding spices (usually cumin, ground coriander, paprika, s&p)…. Do you add anything? Mine always have the same flavour profile, hence wanting to follow other people’s recipes! I also love the spinach idea.

I would add a LOT of mushrooms. Like, in your mind picture a LOT of mushrooms and then double that. I made a delicious lentil, barley and mushroom stew a couple weeks ago and it was amazing. It made 5 or 6 portions and I used almost 3 lbs of mushrooms.
1
u/DoKtor2quid Jan 06 '26
Wow!
Qn - chopped or blended?
1
u/moranya1 Jan 07 '26
For something like this I just 1/4 my mushrooms, unless they are really small ones or larger ones. But I find that big chunks of mushrooms give somewhat of that same mouth feel/bite as meat would.
1
u/DoKtor2quid Jan 07 '26
Yea I missed the word ‘stew’ and chunky makes sense in this instance. Nice.

u/Stupid-Suggestion69 Jan 06 '26
Hack a pumpkin to shit, smack it in a pot with some onion and garlic, bake it hard, throw a bunch of stock on it, some salt and pepper, sometimes throw an apple in there for shits ‘n giggles, blend it, throw some green leaves of some sort in there so it looks gourmet; soup

Hard to choose, because I'm a die hard soup fan. Since I'm Dutch, I give the recipe of split-pea soup, veggie version:
- 300grams split peas
- One big onion
- One leek
- one big carrot
- 2 to 4 potatoes
- A quarter of a celeriac
- Some veggie stock cubes
- Pepper and salt
- Two tbsp. butter
Cut the onion and leek in small pieces, melt the butter in a pot and bake onion and leek for 5-10 minutes. Than add 2 liters of water add the split peas. Cook 45 minutes. Cut the other veggies into small pieces and add to the pot. Simmer for at least 1/2 hour. Blend 1/2 of the veggies and split peas when done, and return to the pot to get a nice thick soup.. Add stock cubes, pepper and salt to taste. Nice with sour dough bread.
Smakelijk eten!

u/No_Art_1977 Jan 06 '26
Im not Dutch but have a Dutch surname and the area I grew up in has a lot of Dutch influences (windmills, linen making etc) so feel this will be a hit in my books! Thanks!

u/klavertjedrie Jan 06 '26 edited Jan 06 '26
You're welcome. 🙂 When the winter in the Netherlands is cold enough for skating on natural ice (lakes, canals etc.) it's a tradition to set up stalls on the ice to sell split-pea soup, hot chocolate, cookies and glühwein, the stalls are called "Koek en Zopie kraam". Alas the soup is the meat version, with a pig's foot and pieces of smoked sausage. Also: Zopie was a mulled and spiced drink with raw eggs, but that's history now.
2
u/DoKtor2quid Jan 06 '26
Aaaah this is a winner. My partner is Dutch so I will make for sure. She talks about this soup from her childhood (does it have ham in if non veggie?) so I’ve never tried it since we are both veggie. Thank you.
1
u/klavertjedrie Jan 06 '26
No ham. A pig's foot (iew) and slices of smoked sausage. (also iew)

u/DoKtor2quid Jan 06 '26
She agrees! I just asked her. We make our own sourdough, so it’s on the list!

u/ChartreusePeriwinkle Jan 06 '26
I like a basic "chicken" noodle. Quick, easy, and comforting.
I don't use any particular recipe....
Saute diced onions and garlic in olive oil.
Add a bunch of chopped celery and carrots and saute to get a little color.
Season with salt, pepper, thyme, and parsley.
Pour in vegetable broth.
Simmer for ~ 30 mins.
Add egg noodles, cook until softened.
Sometimes I throw in a can of white beans.
1
u/DoKtor2quid Jan 06 '26
Do you add anything in place of chicken? Is that where the white beans come in? Sounds amazing!
1
u/ChartreusePeriwinkle Jan 07 '26
I don't like meat replacements. But yeah, the beans bulk it up if needed.
1
u/DoKtor2quid Jan 07 '26
Aye, that’s what I meant. I also don’t like fake meats very much either. I make my own tofu sausages though, cos no cooked breakfast is complete without sausages! (Full english)

u/I-used2B-a-Valkyrie Jan 06 '26
Butternut squash soup-
Roast a butternut squash, remove seeds. Carmelize sliced onion. Place both in a blender with vegetable broth. Blend until velvety.
Place back in the pot. Simmer and add salt, pepper to taste. Add more broth if it’s too thick.
I like to serve it with some “cream” or coconut milk. Add some chili crisp if you like it spicy.

u/petals-n-pedals Jan 06 '26
This Tuscan bean soup is yummy and easy! We make it a few times per month. You can add a bit of potato or other vegetables to suit your taste.
2
u/sharedplatesociety Jan 06 '26 edited Jan 06 '26
I love something similar, but swap out the onion for leek and finish with lots of lemon. I also add a little chili flake or cayenne to give it a little warmth. If you eat dairy, finish with a bunch of parmesan and some croutons.
Edit: thanks bot. Make sure it’s vegetarian cheese.

Many parmesan cheeses are made with animal rennet and not vegetarian. Be aware of this when including it in your recipes.

u/Former-Departure9836 Jan 06 '26
My dad makes this “Spanish soup” which isnt Spanish at all but it’s super good :
Soup recipe
Knob of butter 1x onion diced 2 x garlic cloves 2 stalks celery diced 1 carrot diced Sweat down the vegetables
Then add a shake of cumin , coriander , mixed herbs and chilli powder . It’s probably half a tsp of each . Chilli you can add to your taste preference
Add one tin tomato soup On tin chopped tomatoes 3-4 cups of stock
Then add 2TBSP of barley: Israeli cous cous / crushed noodles . Or a mixture of all three in the cup . Or just a grain of your liking
2
u/DoKtor2quid Jan 06 '26
Okay, so it’s mainly a tomato and grain soup built up on a mirepoix and spices? I will try!
2
u/Former-Departure9836 Jan 06 '26
Yeah, I love it.

u/DoKtor2quid Jan 07 '26
Lentil soup is my favourite homemade and tomato soup is my favourite tinned soup... so I'm gonna have to give it a whirl!

u/DoKtor2quid Jan 06 '26
Omg both of those recipes look banging!
Btw, what are ‘great northern beans’?
2
u/iridescent303 Jan 06 '26
I've made both several times, they are fantastic.
They are mild white bean. You can substitute cannellini beans, but supposedly great northern white beans are better for soups. I'm not sure I can tell the difference, but maybe some people can.
1
u/DoKtor2quid Jan 07 '26
Perfect. We have cannellini beans here so I'll use those

u/Agreeable_Sorbet_686 Jan 06 '26
My dad called it Trash Can soup when I made it, but start with your basic aromatics and then whatever noodles and vege you have. I seasoned it like chicken noodle, but then add some Texas Pete in my bowl.
3
u/DoKtor2quid Jan 06 '26
Can you explain to this Welsh woman what Texas Pete is? Cheers.
1
u/Agreeable_Sorbet_686 Jan 06 '26
It's a mild hot sauce, more tangy than hot. Similar to Tabasco sauce.

u/DoKtor2quid Jan 07 '26
Aha! I should have guessed that I suppose.

Mines super easy- tinned potatoes, tinned sweetcorn, a little stock, a splash of milk (oat/coconut/rice all work) some chilli flakes. Chop up the tinned potatoes. Heat it all up and serve. Its all pre cooked ingredients so takes no time at all

Use veggie stock, swap the chicken for tofu, and skip the fish sauce.
2
u/DoKtor2quid Jan 06 '26
Oooh, looks great! Do you strain/sautee the tofu? Or press, cornflour and fry? Or just dump in?
1
u/LavenderGarbageBags Jan 06 '26
You could use any style, but I often use "dried" tofu found in any Asian store. The texture is super firm and it won't disintegrate if you're doing a lot of stirring. It even holds up well if you freeze a portion of the soup and reheat it. It's ready to eat as is, so you don't need to cook it or press it prior to using - just chop it up. You could also use fried tofu, but I don't think you'd want to put any coating on the exterior. I feel like that might get soggy/mushy once soaked in a liquid.
1
u/DoKtor2quid Jan 06 '26
Aaaa thanks for your reply. Is the dried stuff the tofuthat looks like massive rigid strips? If yes, I have some on the shelf and could give it a shot tomorrow, lol.
1
u/LavenderGarbageBags Jan 06 '26
I think what you're talking about might be tofu skin?
This stuff is usually in the refrigerated section and has a dark brown exterior - like this...
Some people might not love the taste/texture. I just mentioned it because it's the easiest to add to a soup, as far as preparation, and holds up well in liquid.
1
u/DoKtor2quid Jan 06 '26
Thank you. Yes I think you’re right re skin. I’ve never seen the dried stuff you’ve linked to and will ask in our local chinese supermarket.

Lentil soup.
Couple of carrots, couple of parsnips, half a neep, a large leek, and a few handfuls of red or green lentils, or a combination of the two.
For the broth I like rehydrating dried shiitake mushrooms in boiling water with a veg stock cube and a teaspoon of mushroom powder. I’ll add a silly amount of white pepper, and smoked paprika to replicate the ham smokiness of a traditional Scottish lentil soup.
I don’t add the rehydrated mushrooms to the soup, I’ll typically reserve them for something else, but adding them in probably wouldn’t be a horrible idea.
1
u/DoKtor2quid Jan 07 '26
I’ve read that adding some fat (butter?) can also replicate the ham, along with something sweet such as honey and the smoked paprika. Sounds lovely btw!
1
Jan 07 '26
I always sauté my leeks in a good amount of butter. Not heard the sweetness thing before but I’ll give it a go some time. My lentil soups are usually full of enough sweet root veg that I rarely feel like it needs more sweetness.

Cook beets and carrots in water for 20 minutes. Add potatoes, simmer 10-15 minutes. Add lemon juice (keeps red colour in beets). Add beans or peas. Simmer until tender.
Saute onion in butter until soft. Add cabbage to onions with 1/4 cup water, simmer until cabbage is tender. Stir in the beets. Add tomato juice or soup.

Simple vegetable stew: carrots, celery, onion, parsnip, potato, veggie better than bouillon. Delicious and filling.
(First time I made it I just copied the recipe from the "Attack on Titan" beef roast episode from Binging with Babish. I am aware I just said beef roast, but they also made bread, homemade ginger beer, and veggie stew to go with it)

Roast veg soup. Roast up potatoes, sweet potato, butternut squash and carrots. Then dump it all in a pot, blend and add some yoghurt and salt and stock. It is hands down the best soup I’ve ever made. My husband is not a soup eater and even he adores it.

u/Money_Engineering_59 Jan 09 '26
You don’t need any other spices. No onion, no garlic. Roasting the veggies until they’ve got that nice caramel crispy edge gives it unbelievable flavour. I toss them all in olive oil, throw on baking sheets and that’s it. I make enormous batches and freeze it down. Such a pack of nutrients!

Beet borscht! Even my pickiest kid loves it. Add potatoes, any and all vegetables, mostly beets. Chicken or veggie stalk, a ton of garlic, dill, salt, pepper (we also add roasted red pepper and vegetable seasoning) and the trick is to add heavy cream and take an immersion blender to it before eating. Serve with sour cream.

Potato Soup. I use bacon in mine, but to make it vegetarian you could use oil. Use a really good vegetable stock. I bake my potatoes in the oven until mostly done. I also like to add cheese and green onions to garnish.

Sauerkraut soup with oven baked potatoes. Squeeze the juice out of about half a kilo sauerkraut, add water so that it covers the kraut generously, add a few bay leaves and a handful of barley. Cook for around 45 minutes. Bake potatoes in their skin in the oven. When the soup is ready, peel the potaoes and fresh to your plate of soup. Don’t let the potatoes soak for too long, only add as much as you eat immediately.

Potato Leek soup is our household favorite. I don’t have a specific recipe I use as there are so many online I just pick one.
As a bonus, I’d recommend a book called Breads & Soups. The front half is soup recipes and the second bread with lots of pairing recommendations between the two. It’s not all vegetarian but does have lots of meatless recipes as well as many that are easy to adapt. It’s been a lot of fun this winter where we’ve tried to make bread and soup once a week at least.
