Soup Season

Today started off as another cold and wet grey day so I decided to make  a batch of soup for lunch.

Much like Weaver's fridge-bottom soup, I generally chuck in anything that comes to hand, season well with chilli, garlic and herbs, boil it all up and then blitz it with the stick blender. It usually tastes better than that sounds.

Today's soup used the left over broth from the weekend's beef stew as a base, adding some sweet potato and extra garlic.  Thanks to Tigger's comment on a recent blog post, I also added some torn up pieces of the mutilated sourdough loaf which soaked into the broth and thickened it up.

It was quite yummy, and there's some left for tomorrow.
