Chunky Lentil & Bacon Soup
Made with British smoked bacon, green lentils and chunky carrot. (300g)
Description
A classic, hearty soup made with British Oak-smoked streaky bacon and green lentils with chunky carrot in a rich chicken stock & tomato base, seasoned with a hint of garlic and cracked black pepper
Our Serving Suggestion
With a side, a soup can be turned into a meal — mop up this hearty soup with fresh-from-the-oven rolls. Serve with crispy bacon lardons on top for extra crunch and a scattering of freshly chopped flat-leaf parsley.
Our Drinks Pairing
A chilled Chardonnay is a good option here. Dry and medium-bodied, it's bright and beautiful as early morning sunshine, a popular and easy wine to enjoy.
