Often when we are feeling tired, hungover, under the weather or in need of a thoroughly nourishing broth, then this is our 10-minute go-to. The trick is to have all of the vegetables ready so that you can quickly plunge them all into the stock together to cook just lightly. If you don’t have any broad beans, just use peas.
Should you wish to bulk up this broth a little, try adding some grains or pulses. Simply cook separately as per packet instructions and add to the broth with a little more water.
