How to make hotch potch soup:
A corruption of the name of this recipe is the well known winter dish of "hot-pot", which rather than meaning a miscellany of ingredients has now come to mean a thick casserole.

4 young carrots
2 young turnips
6 small onions
1 round lettuce
1 small cauliflower
1 cup garden peas, shelled
sprig each of parsley and thyme

Method

- Cut the carrots and turnips into small pieces, pull apart the leaves of the lettuce, and chop the onions.
- Put these with the parsley and thyme into the stock.
- Simmer for half an hour.
- Add the peas and the white part of the cauliflower divided into small sprigs.
