ADVICE FOR WINTER VEGETABLE SOUP

Above are the prepared ingredients for a very tasty Winter Vegetable Soup. However, feel free to use whatever vegetables you have available as substitutes.

You will see from the picture in the Preparation section above, that swede, celery, leeks and other winter vegetables can be used as substitutes. The potato is important however. Together with the pearl barley and flour it thickens the soup.

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1

Add all the ingredients to the slow cooker except for 500 ml of stock and the flour.

Slowly pour the flour into the 500ml of stock stirring constantly. Keep stirring for a minute or so. Some of the flour will be mixed in and some will form lumps, that's not a problem. Pour the stock and flour mixture into the slow cooker and mix everything well.
