    A really filling soup and easy to put together. The basil and garlic "pistou" was something new to me, and is well worth doing to make the most of the other flavours. I made the stock up using one cube (rather than two) to make up the 800ml for a fresher taste, and added a bit of leftover roast chicken stock from the back of the fridge to give it a bit more depth.
