Something a little different and very rich and tasty. You will have to ask your butcher for Marrowbone as they never normally sell it at your local supermarket.

What you need
Marrowbone
5 Carrots
2 small Onions
1/4 of a medium sized Turnip
4 to 5 Potatoes
1 large cup of lentils
Salt and pepper to season

What to do
Boil the kettle and once boiled pour this into a large saucpan until its baout 3/4 full
Add the Marrowbone and the lentils
Boil this up on the hop until a gentle simmer
Whilst the pan is boiling away, prepare the rest of your vegetables
Once the vegetables are are chopped up into nice small pieces add them all to the pan and stir well
Season with a good pinch of salt and pepper
Turn the heat right down to a very gentle simmer and leave this for approx 1 to 1 and half hours, stirring occasionally
Taste and season more if required
Done

Gourmet Shark Tip: For best results leave the soup overnight for flavours to come to together and the soup to thicken more.

Delicious with fresh Manx bread and butter and makes a very fulfilling and tasty lunchtime snack that will keep you going for the rest of the day
