A steaming hot bowl of purple yam soup with pork chops and some herbs. I make Purple Yam Soup whenever I need something to lift me up. The feeling of chewy yam together with a plate of salted cucumber pickles or caramelized pork brings back my good mood instantly!(Contributed by Chói Chang)

This came about as a result of:A. Really fancying a stew or casserole (it was a very cold day) but only having to cook for myself and not wanting to wait all bloody day.B. Having some pickled garlic and ginger I'd picked up at a French market and was starting to feel slightly guilty about not using yet.The result is this rather nice, warming dish that cost my about '£3.
