Trampoline Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Red Lentil & vege and a Moroccan Lamb soup feature occasionally here. The kids aren’t massive soup fans so we don’t have them often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Bear Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Homemade :Chicken and vegetable soup (I’m the only one who eats this)Roast Pumpkin and garlic soup (I’m the only one that eats this)MinestronePotato and Leek SoupI can’t stand Pea and Ham soup or Tomato soup. I don’t like soups with a strong meaty flavour. If ordering from an Asian restaurant I might have Chicken and Sweet Corn, Wonton soup or Pho Ga. Kids don’t eat any of the soups (or stews/curries for that matter). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BornToLove Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Pho is very popular here. It gets in regular rotation in the winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riotproof Posted April 25, 2021 Author Share Posted April 25, 2021 Pho is very popular here. It gets in regular rotation in the winter. All year round here. Ds loves taking a thermos of it to school for lunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozgirl Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Pea and ham, my ex loved traditional minestrone (which is a ham hock apparently)And I love roasted pumpkin and then just purée with homemade chicken stock. Last winter I was having Pho most days for lunch actually. Might try that again. It’s easier to make at home rather than the office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaLittleEd Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I really dislike pumpkin soup, even though I generally love pumpkin things.Favourite soups are minestrone and potato and leek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverstreak Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I really like soup, but I'm the only one in the house that does, so I don't end up cooking it a lot. I eat a lot of vegetable and lentil soup on my 5:2 days. I also do a really nice roasted pumpkin, capsicum and garlic soup.My local shops do a good wonton noodle soup and a coconut chicken noodle soup, which I love. My favourite though is chicken curry laksa and I just don't live near a place that does one, restaurants tend to do a seafood or seafood blend. There's a place in the city (Melbourne) that does the best laksa I've ever eaten but since I've moved work locations I never go there anymore. Heaven in a bowl it was.

Jenflea Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I make :Chicken and vegetablePotato, bacon and cheeseFrench onion ( I add beef for DD who isn't a fan of much onion, but is getting better at eating it)Asian style made from 2 min noodles with carrot, spring onion, corn and whatever other veggies I have to hand added) and extra stock. (Oriental flavour is the best one for this)PhoVietnamese braised beef noodle soup (I think it's a Marion Grasby one, I do a lot of her stuff) DH loves this one.Tinned tomato soup, with noodles( I love this, have had it since I was a kid, but it HAS to be Heinz Big Red soup lol) DD and I add grated cheese and lots of pepper. Spicy salmon soup from the Nick Nairn Salmon cookbook (super easy)Chicken soup with Matzo balls (I use saos for the matzo meal substitute). Soup I like but DD doesn't (so I hardly make ):Cauliflower and cheeseMushroom'leek and potato. I love soup! I rarely make my own stock. I use the Campbells liquid ones.

Jenflea Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I've also made pea and ham, minestrone and lamb and barley soups. Can you tell I like soup? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LemonMyrtle Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I do a great pumpkin soup in a pot .since getting a thermomix many years ago, I also make a good tomato soup and a very hearty vegetable soup, and a puréed vegetable soup that’s also good and good for using up old veg. The thermomix really is a soup machine, it’s so easy. I should use it more.I’ve really got to expand my soup repertoire, but DH always complains “soup isn’t a meal”, even though after eating my soups he is always full and always enjoy them. I like Asian noodle and wonton soups, never make them myself cause I’m scared It will be too hard, and they’re so good from the local noodle shop.

Scootaloo Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 Pumpkin Chunky veg type ( usually just make up the recipe as I go for this one LOL)What my mother called ‘Chinese chicken soup’ but I think it is really called egg soup or something as it has no chicken but has egg that cooks to look like chicken. A creamy cheese and veg soup that is delicious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenflea Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 I've always wanted to try lettuce soup. I think it's basically lettuce cooked in chicken stock. A milder green veggie than say, spinach or the like. I've had laksa (oh, another soup I make regularly!) with lettuce in it, that was really good.

I legit thought RP was having us on. Or it was a test to see if we read the whole fucking list. No one in my house eats soup. The closest we get is laksa or chicken noodle soup but I have to add a shit tonne of noodles that they think it's just a noodle dish.

ImperatorFuriosa Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 My kids don't like soup. DP likes mushroom, tomato and Asian Laksa. I don't do chicken anything. It makes me gag. I only eat/drink minestrone, tomato, pea and ham and potato. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
