As all of you on here know, I am great at making lentil soup. Today I am making some, but I haven't any bacon bits or ham thingies to put in. In fact haven't any bastard onions either. Instead, I have used lentils, broccoli, carrots, potatoes and even chucked in some peas because I am so wacky. Not even sure you could call it lentil soup. More like a vegetable soup than involves lentils. I put in a chicken stock cube and might add some Bisto. I had never used Bisto before until I saw some in a shop a few months ago. I shall tell you how it tastes later. Anyway, stay sun safe, guise.
I didn't you ****ing fool, I am not making gravy! Not my fault if you are scared or vegetables though. In saying that, if somebody was making oxtail soup, surely Bisto would do as a replacement for a beef stock cube?
