Preparazione

1. Melt dripping in pot ,chop onion and carrots , brown gently.
stir in two teaspoons of yeast extract or soya sauce ( a few tablespoons)
chop the potatoes in to various palatable chunks and add to pot
chop the leek add to pot cover with stock and bring to the boil.

2. Top up with more waterto cover if necessary.
When the stock is boiling break the mince up over the top so that it poaches
Simmer for 40 minutes or so , season to taste. (i like to spice it up with chilli flakes) top up with stock if required
I find the soup is better if left for a few hours. it,s a great winter warmer
