directions

  • In a large pan gently saute the bacon until the fat is rendered.
  • Add the oil, garlic and onions and saute until onions are soft, ensure they don't brown.
  • Add all the remaining vegetables, the chopped tomatoes, bay leaf and the 150ml water.
  • Bring to the boil then reduce the heat and simmer for 30-40 mins until the veg are softened.
  • Blend the soup in a liquidiser (it will be really thick) then add the milk.
  • Use the hot water to thin the soup to your preferred consistency and season to taste (I didn't add a lot as it was for my daughter).
  • Reheat if necessary.

<p><img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket />&nbsp;<br />Happily married and&nbsp;the proud mum of a beautiful daughter aged 5 and a baby son who was born on 10/04/10. Really enjoy cooking and trying new recipes, especially north American, French, Greek and Mexican. Have many cookbooks which I often pick from but love Nigel Slaters recipes and attitude, Charmaine Solomon for her Asian recipes and I am also a subscriber to Good Food Mag. I try to source good quality ingredients particularly meat and organic veg as I believe that <br />good ingredients can make a meal truely special. Have been lucky enough to find a wonderful farmer/butcher in Wales who only sells his own produce which is fantastic and I always stock up on a whole lamb for the freezer when I go there! <br /><img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg alt= /></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><a href=http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HycMLGzpJjc/S-3vqYbQ-3I/AAAAAAAAAAo/UwzmbgtkT30/s1600/MischiefMakers.jpg[/img></a></p>
