This substantial [[Soup|soup]] has been adapted from Mrs Maureen Kirkland's recipe for ''Rumpy-pumpy soup'' which appears in The Hairy Bikers' book, '''Mum's Know Best''' (ISBN 0297860267). Maureen's original recipe was created as a way to get her children to eat [[Vegetables|vegetables]], but my adaptation is more gutsy.
