garlic cloves, crushed

Massel vegetable liquid stock

water

The comfort bowl you need when the temperature starts to dip.

Ham hock soup

tbsp coconut oil, duck fat

onions,

chicken

smoked ham hock (1kg-1.2kg)

carrots and celery stalks, thinly sliced

turnip (150 gramsm), peeled, cut into 1cm dice

garlic cloves, thinly sliced

tsp turmeric

½ tsp ground cumin

300 gm pumpkin,

zucchini (330 gramsm),

silverbeet leaves (about ½ bunch), stalks removed, coarsely torn

lemon,

To serve: chilli flakes

Heat oil or fat in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and stir occasionally until tender (3-5 minutes). Add stock or water, ham hock, carrot, celery, turnip, garlic and spices, and bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer, adding more water as necessary to keep ham hock just covered, until meat is very tender (about 2 hours). Add pumpkin and cook for 10 minutes, then add zucchini, and simmer uncovered until vegetables are tender and meat is falling from the bone (15-20 minutes).

Remove ham hock from soup and, when cool enough to handle, shred or coarsely chop meat (discard skin and fat), add to soup, bring to a simmer, then add silverbeet and simmer uncovered until just wilted (2-4 minutes).

Serve soup warm, seasoned to taste with lemon juice, a generous grind of cracked pepper and chilli flakes.

Your greener future starts here, with a healthy side to crunch and munch through!
