Notes
Placing the hard vegetables on the bottom of the pot makes sure they all cook properly.Mixing the French onion soup into the stock ensures that the flavour is distributed evenly.I used powdered stock to make this recipe to keep it a budget meal. It still packed a punch in the flavour stakes.Serve it with crusty bread and stir a generous handful of chopped parsley through it before serving.This recipe was created by Jennifer Cheung for Kidspot, New Zealand’s best recipe finder.
