Traditional versions of this soup simmer everything – bones and all – for hours. But we like our vegetables less mushy, so we prepare the lamb stock first then finish the soup with fresh vegetables and meat from the stock.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 cup diced celery
  • 1 cup diced peeled carrots
  • 1 cup diced peeled white turnips
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 cup pot barley
  • 8 cups lamb stock
  • 1 cup diced peeled potatoes
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • 1-1/2 cups chopped cooked mutton or lamb neck or stew meats
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

Preparation

In Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat; saute onion, celery, carrot, turnip, garlic, bay leaf, salt and pepper for about 5 minutes or until softened. Add barley; cook, stirring, for 1 minute.

Add stock and 2 cups (500 mL) water; bring to boil. Add potato and thyme; cover and simmer for about 25 minutes or until vegetables and barley are tender.
