When I read the post re the carrot lentil and coriander soup I went into the kitchen and made it! It's wonderful! And far more filling with using the lentils than a plain carrot and coriander.I'll often make lentil or split pea soup in the pressure cooker, just add carrots onion and celery. The chicken noodle and tomato bacon and lentil soups from the EE recipe book are good too.
On a tv programme a few months ago it said that soup was proved to keep you feeling fuller for longer so was very good if you were trying to lose weight.

ohhh thats good
One onion, diced. Two leeks, sliced. Two potatoes, diced. Into a pan, season, cover with stock, simmer until cooked.
Take out half, blitz with hand-held blender until smooth. Return the smooth bit to the rest left in the pan, reheat. Add a good grating of nutmeg.
(Or make it all smooth if that's what you like.)
This recipe used to be a lot more complicated than this, but I have made it more and more simple and I think it is delicious just as it is. Personally, I think the freshly grated nutmeg is essential, but not everyone likes it, so it's up to you.
