    List of Ingredients




    1 teasp oil
    2 teasp butter
    1 onion
    1 carrot
    1 potato
    1 wedge savoy cabbage
    1 tin beans (borlotti)
    2 tomatoes, quartered and the stem nicked out.
    1/2 teasp dried thyme
    Fresh parsley if available
    2 rounded teasp marigold vegetable stock powder
    About 1 pint boiling water
    Salt & pepper

    Recipe



    Heat the oil and butter in a large pan on a low heat. Chop all the veg
    except tomatoes small (I use a food processor) and add to pan. Stir well
    then put lid on and let them sweat for 5 mins. Add the tomatoes, salt &
    pepper (it needs lots), herbs and then gradually add the water. Bring to
    the boil, add the beans and stock powder. Lower heat and cook, about 30
    mins or so, until veg are soft. The tomato skins will rise to the top so
    you can fish them out. Taste for seasoning. Either serve as it is, or
    take out half and blend then add back to pan, or use a braun hand
    blender in the pan and liquidise most, leaving in some bits. Or of
    course you can liquidise it all. Serve sprinkled with parsley if you
    have it.
