Welsh Cawl is more than just a soup; it's a tradition and it’s a hearty, warming bowl of comfort that has been cherished for generations.

Based on the ‘Eat Welsh Lamb’ recipe which features succulent PGI Welsh Lamb shoulder or neck, fresh thyme, and a medley of vegetables, making it the perfect dish to enjoy on a chilly day.

Here’s what you’ll need to make Cawl:

Ingredients:

• 650g Lamb shoulder or neck, diced

• Sprigs of fresh thyme

• Seasoning

• 2 litres of vegetable stock

• 1 tbsp oil

• 1 large onion, roughly chopped

• 3 whole leeks, washed, trimmed, and sliced

• 4 large carrots, peeled and diced

• 1/2 swede or 2 parsnips, peeled

• 4 large potatoes or 12 small Rosedew potatoes, scrubbed and diced.

Method:

• In a large saucepan, fry the lamb until brown.

• Add the onion and leeks, and cook for 2 minutes, until soft. Add the remaining ingredients.

• Simmer on a low heat with the lid on until the lamb is tender, which takes approximately 2 hours 30 minutes to 3 hours.

• Best served with crusty bread, topped with salted butter and mature Welsh cheddar cheese.
