Thanks maddy, I've taken a copy of that one. Good to see some more soups here with winter coming upon us soon. Though it was 29 C here today, so winter is still some way away!
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

Making this tonight! We're having left overs from two other dishes of the past few nights, so I thought it would be good to have a hearty soup to start. Thanks maddy!
