A warming winter vegetable soup for when Jack Frost visited
Lovely ice crystals - Hell's Ditch
Getting colder
Winter’s drawing ever closer: we had the first hard frost of the year a few days ago, which was the perfect occasion to test a new vegetable soup recipe I’d thought about.
Good morning Mr Frost!
Someone else out inspecting the frosty day
In the past I made a Dhal, a lentil based thick curry stew to accompany curries.
And 10 minutes later, these icy shards had completely disappeared...
But I had never used them in soups, so here’s quick and easy vegetable offering with a deep aromatic spice. You can use anything in your spice rack: try different combinations and let us know what works for you.

As you are getting colder, we are getting warmer (slowly but surely). I enjoy a good hearty vegetable soup no matter the season and yours looks fantastic.

Your soup looks very warm and inviting, the frost not so much. I am so glad I am not living in Michigan right now. It was 50 degrees F in hong Kong this week and I feel cold. LOL Take Care
Cream makes everything taste better 🙂
I love the first photo! And a big yes to dal soups 🙂
The soup looks great, but even better are the photos. Love Hell’s Ditch.
Jack Frost has paid a few visits this week. Soup looks delicious just dive right in and savor it! Thanks for sharing and Have a Great Weekend!
The photos are beautiful! I love the ingredients in the soup; it makes a thick hearty soup for these chilly winter days. We had our hard frost about a month ago, but our temperatures are jumping up and down like a seesaw!
I can’t decide which photo is prettier…the first one of the rather floral looking frost, or the last one of that gorgeously colored soup! i want some of that soup!
I love the first one of the weird frost flower myself 🙂
Love the frost photos!
fab soup and keep taking shots of hells ditch so we can watch it change!! Thanks noodle.. c
