MAKES 4 SERVINGS

Cock-a-leekie Soup

“COCK-A-LEEKIE” (cock/hen cooked with leeks) is from Scotland, where they know a thing or two about keeping out winter wet and cold. We make this soup post-Roast Chicken (page 130) when we have all the ingredients on hand—cold chicken and oodles of chicken stock—to make a delightful feast. The key to making this soup delicious is the stock: make your own.

2 onions, peeled and sliced

2 good-sized/4 small leeks, roots cut off, washed, and chopped

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon organic butter

sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

6 cups Chicken Stock (page 84)

Farls (page 156)

1 cup cooked chicken meat

Follow the usual soup-making steps: scrub, peel, and chop your veggies and sauté in olive oil until golden and translucent. Add the butter, the cooked chicken, and season generously. Stir and cook for another minute or so.

Now add the stock. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover, and cook gently for 15-20 minutes.

While the soup is cooking, make your Farls. It’s up to you whether or not you want the soup liquidized or not. To liquidize, simply blend until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
