Souper simple!

What could be better than some fresh crusty bread dipped into a bowlful of nourishing soup as we – finally – celebrate the joys of spring? Whether served hot, or chilled as an al fresco accompaniment, it’s such a versatile dish; plus, it’s wholesome and a great way to get your five-a-day health fix. From light vegetable broths to creamy and luxurious medleys, there’s a soup for every season – a feast in a bowl that can be enjoyed as a snack, starter or main meal, even better still, in the sunshine!

Belinda Williams, founder of soup company(Ryland, Peters & Small, £16.99). So, fire up the stove for a sweet and buttery ‘Yorkshire ale, caramelised onion and thyme soup’, an immune-boosting ‘Red lentil soup with chicken, turmeric and chilli’ or a light and tasty ‘Fresh spinach soup with minted pea and coriander’.
