Another speedy soupmaker recipe. This produces quite a thick soup (which suits us) but will happily stand a little watering down if that suits your preference. Please note that the photograph shows today’s undiluted soup in a saucepan awaiting re-heating and hence prior to the addition of crème fraîche. #WastenotWantnot

Steps

30-35 minutes including prep

1

Put all ingredients except the seasoning and cream/crème fraîche into soupmaker. Put lid on and press start button.
2

When cycle ends (typically 20-25 minutes), season to taste. Only add salt if you’re sure it’s needed coz the original gammon and stock tend to be sufficiently salty.
3

Serve piping hot into warmed soup bowls and add a dollop of cream or crème fraîche to each serving.
4

Serve with your choice of bread.

I use fresh, locally-sourced and seasonal ingredients wherever possible and seek to avoid food waste with my “Use-up” recipes. #WastenotWantnotMy wife and I love travelling and exploring different cuisines but never under-estimate traditional British cooking: every country has something to offer, including in the field of home cooking.
