Background

You can buy in most supermarkets a mix of pearl barley, rice, dried peas &lentil etc, called “soup mix”. It’s high in fibre and a good source of protein, making soups and stews hearty and healthy. This vegan spiced sweet potato and carrot broth is a good example. It’s not only filling and healthy but very yummy too.

Ingredients

1 Tbsp olive oil
1 onion
2 cloves of garlic
2 carrots
1 large sweet potato
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp smoked paprika (or ½ tsp chilli pepper)
1 tsp dried oregano
1 Tbsp tomato purée
2 tomatoes, chopped
1 bayleaf
1 litre vegetable stock (chilli & tomato)
200g soup mix (pre-soaked)
75g Cavolo nero or kale
To serve: chopped coriander leaves, lime juice

Instructions

Peel and chop the onion, garlic, sweet potato and carrots.
Heat the oil in a saucepan, then sauté the onion until soft.
Add the garlic, sweet potato & carrot chunks, stir for a couple of minutes, then add the ground spices and tomato purée. Stir for a minute, then add the chopped tomatoes, bay leaf and stock. Add the pre-soaked and drained soup mix, bring to the boil, cover and simmer over low heat for about 30-45 minutes, until tender. Add more stock if it’s getting too thick.
Thinly slice the kale or cavolo nero, add to the broth and cook for 5 more minutes, under cover.
Stir in some lime juice and chopped coriander, then serve with toast or crusty bread
