a collection of warming winter soups from Silvia Nacamulli Lisa Roukin Victoria Prever Anna Del Conte

It's cold out there and, with heating bills on the rise, not overly warm inside many of our homes. The answer is (in part) soup. Quick to make, packed with nutrients and vitamins and a doddle to batch cook and freeze. Here are some of my favourite recipes for you to fill your freezer: super fast pea soup Small Photo: Chiswell Studios My gorgeously green super fast pea soup, made with frozen peas broth looks as good as it tastes. It's also simple enough to whizz up for lunch, with ingredients many of us will have in store. Delicious with or without the crème fraiche and sumac garnish. Silvia sweet potato and Jerus artichoke Photo: Inbal Bar-Oz Silvia Nacamulli's recipe combines seasonal Jerusalem artichokes and nutrient-packed sweet potatoes for a comforting weekday lunch. Or add the herb oil and crunchy fried veg crisps to zhuzh it up for Shabbat. Lisa R chestnut soup land Photo: Inbal Bar-Oz Pale and beautiful, this smooth soup from Lisa Roukin gets its creamy texture from ensuring you fully blitz the cauliflower and chestnuts. Just make sure you buy unsweetened and not sweetened chestnut puree to avoid turning it into dessert. Spinach-and-Watercress-Soup WEB Anna Del Conte's velvety spinach and watercress soup is packed with iron and vitamin C. It's thickened with cannellini beans for an extra nutritional punch. Tamar Adler-s Minestrone Beans, veg and pasta make this delicious minestrone from Tamar Adler a keeper, and definitely cooking up a batch for the week.
