A Traditional Welsh Dish

Cawl Lafwr (Laver Soup)

Laver is an an edible seaweed harvested from the rocks around the Welsh coast, and can be used to make this tasty thick vegetable (yes I said vegetable) soup.

Stuff you'll need:

4 ozs butter
3 ozs of the Holy laverbread
2 medium onions chopped.
2 pints lamb stock
3 spuds (potatoes)chopped
Salt & black pepper
1 carrot peeled & chopped
½ level teaspn castor sugar
and some parsley for garnish.

How to mix it up:

Melt the butter in a pan and cook the veggies until lightly brown. Stir in the holy laver and stock, bring to the boil and simmer, covered for 20-30 minutes until the veggies are nice and tender. Allow to cool a little, then sieve or liquidise. Return to a clean saucepan, add the seasoning and sugar and reheat thoroughly. Pour into bowls and garnish with parsley.

This will serve 4 moshers, or 2 if you are really hungry from all that Jagermeister.
