This is one of my dad’s favourite soups. I remember the first time I made it – I could tell he was a little bit unsure about the idea of a soup containing chickpeas. But, once he tasted it – he loved it – which makes me a very happy …
I’m so pleased to be bringing you this recipe again – and the lovely family story behind it. I watched my mum when I was a little girl make this pumpkin soup – over and over again, and I have always loved it. However, over the years, as you go …
We kick off our look back into the Uforic Food archives with a recipe I posted way back when the blog first started, just over two years ago. Many of you weren’t around way back then – so a lot of these recipes will be brand new for you – …
Lentils and I have had a love/hate relationship over the years, much like most daughters, including myself, have with their mother. As with my mother Carmela, I used to struggle to get along with lentils as a kid. Maybe there was something about how wholesome they were that turned me …
Leftovers can be a blessing – or totally evil! They are terrific when you are inspired – there’s so many yummy things you can make. Mexican chicken soup is a prime example of that – I will get to that in just a second. But, leftovers can be so bad! …

Laksa is one of my dad’s all time favourite meals and over the years, I have worked really hard to find the recipe to create an authentic tasting version. They have all failed, up until now. I have spent years trailing different store brought pastes – I have grinder countless …
It’s so freezing outside that I thought I should share with you a soup recipe that has become one of my all-time favourites. I adore leeks and seeing as they are in season, now is an ideal time to whip this up. I really didn’t like the idea of chickpeas in soup at first – but although it only has a few ingredients, the flavour is amazing. I originally saw this made on a Jamie Oliver cooking show way back when. I’ve made it my own and no longer need the recipe to guide me. Everyone I have served it to has been impressed

Leek and Chickpea Soup
2 tablespoons of butter
4 leeks
3 desiree potatoes, peeled and cut into cubes
2 cans of chickpeas, drained and well rinsed
1.5 – 2 litres of chicken stock
