“These new recipes are some of my favourite no-fuss, nutritious soups for cosy nights in. And because there's no such thing as too much comfort, I've also included recommendations for sides (butter rotis, polenta cake) and optional extras (risotto) to make them even more filling as family suppers.” – Abigail Donnelly
