It's Autumn and I'm in the mood for quick but substantial broths that I can get down my neck in no no time! Don't know about you but as the weather gets colder I want my food NOW and I want it to be GOOD.
Just made this quickie in the microwave while I was hanging out the washing and it's nice and thick and a good one for taking to work for lunch
Preparation - 5 mins
Servings - 4
Cooking time in micro - 8-10 mins
As this is microwaved don't use lots of water, but if conventional cooking use more
INGREDIENTS
quarter cube fish stock
4 oz boiled water to your own measuring
half tin chopped tomatoes
dried herbs - pepper, dill, turmeric, chives, onion salt if needed
chia seeds
fresh salmon steak
1 courgette
1 tin of black eye beans - 175g drained = 18.1g carbs per 100g
handful of grated mature cheddar cheese
optional low carb crackers or breadsticks
single or double cream or soured cream
Dissolve the stock cube in very hot water
Add the half tin of tomatoes and the herbs
Cut the salmon up into small chunks and remove any bones
Chop the courgette into small chunks
Drain beans
Add all the ingredients except cheese to the stock
Microwave for 5 minutes and stir
Add the handful of cheese and microwave for a further 4 mins
Check if courgette is cooked
Leave to cool and then plonk it in the blender until smooth
Serve with a dollop of cream or soured cream and low carb crackers 3.5g each
