I got a slow cooker for Christmas – because that’s what excitement looks like when you’re in your thirties – so imagine my delight when The Soup entered my orbit.
My husband spotted the viral Reddit thread and we knew we had to try it.
The Soup, it must be said, is so easy to make, even the most challenged home cook would struggle to mess it up. And it’s perfect if you’re working from home.
I completed steps one and two (microwave the base ingredients, then throw in the slow cooker with chicken, tomatoes and stock) on my lunchbreak. By the time I finished work, the house already smelled delicious.
All that was left to do was to throw in some tortellini, spinach and a splash of cream for 10 minutes and hey presto, dinner was complete with very little effort.
The verdict?
The Soup is hearty home cooking at its best – I can see why it’s been so popular. The bowl is creamy, comforting and filling – though, it doesn’t look too pretty. This is one for hunkering down with on a cold day, not a dish to serve to guests. My attempts to make it more photogenic with a sprinkle of chilli flakes and basil fall flat.
Still, The Soup will be entering the rotation of dinners I cook when I can’t be bothered to cook. Delicious!
