Scotch Broth
After a long day's work chasing sheep around a field, there are few things more comforting than a hot bowl of Scotch Broth. This luscious soup contains lamb (scraggy, fatty lamb, not the lean posh stuff), root vegetables and barley. It's quite easy to make, although it does need quite a long cooking time. If you leave it a day or two before eating it, the flavour is even better.

How To Make Scotch Broth - Scottish Soup Recipe
SCOTCH BROTH
Made using fresh veg from @thefreshfruitshop ???????? & meat bought from @donald_butchers ???? I use boiling beef in my recipe - always have - because it’s what my Gran used. Traditionally I think it’s lamb bones (hence the lamb stock), so use lamb ribs from the butcher if you prefer ????????
This makes a biiiig portion (plenty for the freezer stash), so just half the volumes if you want to make less or you don’t have a pot big enough ????
Ingredients

- 1kg boiling beef (or lamb ribs)
- 1/2 x turnip

- 2 x onions
- 1 x leek
- 2 x medium potatoes
- 2 x bay leaves
- large handful parsley
- 6 x pints water
- 4 x lamb stock cubes
- salt & pepper
Method
1. Measure broth mix and leave to soak overnight (or approx 6-8 hours in cold water), rinse out with water and drain
2. Put your piece of boiling beef into a large soup pot with some oil and start to brown the meat
3. Prepare herbs/veggies: grate carrot, grate turnip, finely chop onions, finely slice leeks and cube peeled potatoes
4. Add veggies into soup pot with 6 x pints water, broth mix and bay leaves

Full Soup Recipe:
The barley in this recipe is loved by all of my kids, especially the little one she loves to pick out the barley pieces from her bowl and its so filling and delicious on a cold Winters day. Although kale can be tough the kale cooks down to a smooth silky texture and is delicious in this soup. This soup is hearty enough to be served as a main meal but also works well in a three course setting as a small portion.
