Seafood soup
Packed with fresh seafood, this soup is tasty and delicious. Enjoy it as a starter before a special meal or ladle out a little more for a hearty meal-in-a-bowl. We chose to blitz ours before serving for a smooth texture but it is also fabulous left untouched so that you can enjoy mouthfuls of seafood and vegetables.
