I’m sharing a little night snack with everyone here. Alphabet soup. It’s a cheap, easy and healthy supper that the kids will love.

The soul of this dish is the soup. I have here some chicken stock and I’m boiling it with some diced carrot. You can use frozen vegetables with green peas and corn. Some tomatoes and celery would have been good too, but I didn’t have that. Of course, you can make it a vegetarian dish, but to add to the flavour, I’ve given it some prawns and a few slices of ginger.

Once the carrot has softened, add in the alphabet macaroni and boil it for a further 10 minutes and we’re ready to serve.

It tastes as nice as it looks. Spot any familiar words?
